The Unitas 241 is a mechanical watch movement that features an ingenious design in which a single part replaces the setting-lever spring, yoke, and yoke spring. Not much is known about the differences between the Unitas 241 and the Alpina 762, or if there were two separate Alpina calibres within the Alpina-Gruen Guild. The earlier Alpina 762 appears to have been finished by Gruen, while the later Unitas 241 was directly purchased from Universal. However, the movement registers and staff lists only mention the base calibre Universal 259, making further investigations challenging. The Unitas 241 is a manual wind movement with sub-second function, and it was commonly used around 1945.
