Universal Genève Aero-Compax was inspired by the rapid advancement of aviation in the late 1930s and early 1940s, when long-distance flights and multi-leg navigation demanded more precise onboard timing tools; Universal Genève designed the Aero-Compax as a pilot-focused chronograph that could track multiple time-related functions simultaneously, including a second time zone via its distinctive fourth subdial, giving aviators a practical way to manage flight timing, navigation calculations, and coordination across different regions, all within a single wristwatch at a time when cockpit instruments were still limited.

Universal Genève Compax Watch Repair >
Universal Genève Compax was inspired by the growing need in the 1930s for more practical, wrist-worn timing instruments as sports, industry, and scientific pursuits demanded precise measurement of short intervals; building on its early chronograph expertise, Universal Genève designed the Compax as a robust, easy-to-read multi-register chronograph that could track elapsed time with clarity and reliability, reflecting a broader shift from pocket chronographs to functional wrist tools during an era when precision timing was becoming essential in both professional and everyday settings.

Universal Genève Polerouter Watch Repair >
Universal Genève Polerouter was inspired by the dawn of commercial polar aviation in the mid-1950s, specifically Scandinavian Airlines System (SAS) flights that began crossing the North Pole to connect Europe and America more efficiently; these routes exposed watches to extreme magnetic fields near the pole, so Universal Genève created the Polerouter—designed by a young Gérald Genta—as a stylish yet technically resilient watch with anti-magnetic properties and a micro-rotor movement, embodying both the romance of long-distance air travel and the engineering demands of navigating one of the most challenging environments on Earth.

Universal Genève Tri-Compax Watch Repair >
Universal Genève Tri-Compax was inspired by the pursuit of ultimate mechanical complexity during the 1940s, when watchmakers competed to integrate as many useful functions as possible into a single wristwatch; Universal Genève answered this challenge by combining a chronograph with a full calendar and moonphase display, creating a highly sophisticated yet wearable instrument that reflected both the technical ambition of the era and a growing demand for multifunction timepieces that could serve professionals, scientists, and enthusiasts alike.

Universal Genève Uni-Compax Watch Repair >
Universal Genève Uni-Compax was inspired by the need in the 1930s for a more streamlined, accessible chronograph that retained professional timing capability without the complexity of multi-function designs; as chronographs transitioned from niche instruments to everyday tools for sports, industry, and timing events, Universal Genève created the Uni-Compax as a clean, two-register chronograph that balanced precision, legibility, and wearability, reflecting a shift toward practical wrist-worn timing devices that could be used easily in real-world situations.

Heartfelt Testimonials on Watch Repair
Jane Murray ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I found Times Ticking on the internet. The last time I had a watch repaired locally it cost more than the watch did new. I got it back just like new 2 weeks later and 2,000 miles away. HIGHLY recommended. Times Ticking was prompt, inexpensive, and even phoned when they got my watch and told me in advance what it would cost to repair.
Keith Kerney ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Their service was grade A!!! They're quick and professional; they always kept me updated with status of my watches. Their work is flawless which they stand behind, to me most importantly. They speak to you as if you're an old friend asking for help; in which they're always happy to do. Times Ticking; a place where you can ask an old friend for help.
Matthew Emory ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I cannot speak to the local facilities or sales staff. I am an internet customer who took a chance and sent my prized Accutron watch across the country to folks I do not know and have never met. This was a big decision which took several weeks to discern. I am thrilled with my decision and am planning to send my Dad’s watch in for repair. The difference? This time there is no hesitation whatsoever.
Ellen Hymes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I was thrilled that they were able to repair and clean up a watch that I had inherited from my mother. It looks great and works great. The service was fast. The person who called me about the watch was very friendly and seemed grateful for my business. I would highly recommend them to anyone and will use them again if the need arises. So refreshing to receive such good customer service these days!
Peter K ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I highly recommend Times Ticking for watch repair. Jesse & crew know their stuff and even take the time to talk with you. They communicate very friendly/professionally and most of all the prices are more than fair for such craftsmen skills! My opinion: They are like the American Restoration of watches.

HISTORY OF UNIVERSAL GENÈVE
The Legacy of Universal Genève: A History of Precision, Style and Innovation
Universal Genève watches began in 1894 in Le Locle, Switzerland, when Numa-Emile Descombes and Ulysse Georges Perret founded the company, later relocating to Geneva in 1919 and gaining recognition for pioneering wrist chronographs in the 1930s like the Compax and Uni-Compax, followed by the Tri-Compax in 1944, which combined multiple complications in one watch.
By the mid-20th century, the brand was known for innovative designs like the Polerouter and Aero-Compax, but declined during the quartz crisis of the 1970s; today, its vintage watches remain highly sought after for their craftsmanship and influence on modern watchmaking.
