Universal Genève Yellow Gold Skeleton Micro Rotor Automatic 151.11.662

Universal Genève Ref. 151.11.662 – 18K Yellow Gold Skeleton Automatic Dress Watch

The Universal Genève Ref. 151.11.662 is a refined expression of late 20th-century haute horology, combining classical case design with an openly architectural approach to movement finishing. Crafted in solid 18K yellow gold, the watch features a traditional round case accented by a finely detailed coin-edge bezel, lending texture and vintage character to an otherwise restrained silhouette.

The fully skeletonised dial reveals the automatic micro-rotor movement beneath, showcasing bridges, gears, and finishing normally hidden from view. The micro-rotor construction allows the movement to remain slim while preserving an uninterrupted view of the mechanical architecture. Gold-toned bridges, contrasting steel components, and ruby jewels create depth and visual rhythm, offering a dynamic balance between ornamentation and legibility.

Despite the complexity of the openworked design, the layout remains coherent and readable. Slender hands float above the exposed mechanics, allowing the movement itself to serve as both dial and focal point. The coin-edge detailing continues around the case, reinforcing the watch’s classical roots while framing its modern, transparent aesthetic.

Measuring 33mm in diameter with a 38mm lug-to-lug length, the case wears elegantly and proportionately, particularly suited to collectors who appreciate understated dimensions paired with high horological interest. Dating to the 1990s, this reference reflects Universal Genève’s later experimentation with skeletonisation while remaining grounded in traditional craftsmanship.

The Universal Genève Ref. 151.11.662 will appeal to collectors drawn to mechanical transparency, micro-rotor engineering, and discreet precious-metal dress watches. It stands as a quietly sophisticated example of skeletonised watchmaking—technical, elegant, and unmistakably Universal Genève.
