Minerva 1940 Rare Stainless Steel 38mm Step Case Silver Applied Arabic Cal 13-20
Minerva
For auction is a 1940s Minerva Ref 1327 stainless steel step bezel 36mm oversized round pusher case caliber 13-20 in gilt and steel silver dial with applied arabic numerals. The Good: 1. Rare and desirable reference, an oversized highest quality stepped bezel round pusher chronograph with extra fine caliber. 2. When great calibers are thought of the 13-20 is absolutely one of them; in gilt movement with high polished steel chronograph parts it is truly a work of art. 3. Working and functioning correctly, amplitude +305 and +10 seconds per day. The Bad: 1. Dial has a few wear spots but is overall still very nice.
