Good morning watch lovers! Each week we try to bring you something slightly different from the week before. And this week we are focusing mainly on dress watches with a few special chronographs in the mix as well. We have a great selection of eight watches from Omega, Rolex, and Universal Genève. Read on to see what we have in store.

A 1960s Universal Genève Aero-Compax Reference 890100/01

The Aero-Compax is one of Universal Genève's lesser-known watches. Developed in the 1940s, it was the ultimate tool watch, with a chronograph function and a 24-hour dial and bezel. This will be the avid traveler's best friend. The example we have here is from the 1960s and features the Venus 178 movement. It is in impeccable condition. For more on this watch, click here
