Universal Geneve compax 'Top Time'

Over the last years we had several discussions about these pieces and whether or not they were produced by Breitling or produced from Breitling parts , mainly because the striking resemblance with the Breitling Top Time ref 810

Now I finally have one in my hands I am off the fence and dare to say these were produced by Breitling for Universal Geneve . The 1 last fact that got me off the fence is because the movement is marked 'TJ' just below the Venus 178 mark on the mainplate of the movement . TJ is typically used by Breitling to mark their mainplates

anyway , I thought I'd share 😀

Thanks. Looks exactly like an 810. Didn't know UG did that.

UG did use the 178 on the aero compax 24 hours, this is the first Time I saw it in - breitling styled compax, will be interesting to learn more 😀

this is the first one I remember seeing many years ago, not many thereafter till I found the one I just received in the pics above
