Universal Genève Space Compax Ref. 885104-01
1968
With its distinct rubber chronograph pushers, the Universal Genève Space Compax was released likely as an effort to oust the Omega Speedmaster as the standard issue from NASA. Introduced as the underwater version of the Compax, the Space Compax is fitted with a hermetic winding crown and is waterproof to 25m. Its diving bezel also helps divers to keep track of their dive durations and to time decompression stops.
