Collectors prioritize this reference as the brand’s premier anti-magnetic tool watch, featuring a 38mm stainless steel screw-back case and the manual-wind caliber 215-9. The model is distinguished by its \"Amagnetic\" script on the dial and a soft iron inner shield designed to protect the movement from magnetic fields. Due to limited production estimated at several hundred units, the reference is considered rare. Current secondary market prices typically range from $25,000 to $50,000 depending on condition and dial configuration. A notable variant is the \"Type 1\" execution, which features a distinctive white crosshair dial and a larger sub-seconds register, often commanding a premium at auction over later, more minimalist dial iterations."}, "listing_stats": {"count": 0, "median": 0, "low": 0, "high": 0}, "listings": [], "auction_lots": [{"slug": "universal-gen-ve-3417-2016", "brand": "Universal Genève", "reference": "3417", "model": "Amagnetic", "case_material": "Stainless Steel", "hammer_usd": 46000, "year_sold": 2016, "venue": "Christie's Geneva", "lot_summary": "A rare stainless steel antimagnetic wristwatch, a direct competitor to the Rolex Milgauss and Patek Philippe 3417.", "source_url": "https://www.christies.com/lot/lot-patek-philippe-a-fine-and-rare-stainless-6034449/", "provenance": "ai_generated_grounded", "url": "https://mostexpensivewatches.net/auctions/universal-gen-ve-3417-2016"}]}
