Universal Geneve was started in 1894. The name has been well known in Japan too for the first reversible watch, the first chronograph wrist watch with two pushers, the thinnest automatic movement "Caliber 66".

Universal Geneve had announced two new collections at Basel last year. They are "OKEANOS" and "ANTHEA".

OKEANOS
The ancient Greeks thought that beyond the seas, there was an immense river that surrounded all the universe called Okeanos. This river gave birth to all rivers and all seas. Okeanos, being as old as the world, was represented by an old man sitting on the sea's waves with a marine monster aside. As per the Greek poet Homer, all Gods are native of Okeanos.
