Universal Geneve Gilt Shadow Ultra Slim Automatic | Ref. 867110
This Universal Geneve Gilt Shadow is a remarkable example of 1960s craftsmanship, featuring an ultra-slim automatic movement that embodies the elegance and sophistication of the era. The Shadow series is particularly notable for its unique design, which includes a subtle play of light and shadow on the dial, enhancing its depth and allure.
Introduced at BaselWorld 1966, the "Shadow" line featured the Golden Shadow (solid gold), Gilt Shadow (gold plated), and the White Shadow (stainless steel). Interestingly, the White Shadow wasn’t called the "Silver Shadow," likely due to the introduction of the luxury vehicle Silver Shadow by Rolls Royce the year prior, a name already occupied in the world of luxury. This coincidence may hint at the shared target audience of both the Universal Geneve Shadow line and luxury automobiles.
