On this gorgeous trio!! Relatively affordable in those days, and 100% manufacture, the golden cut on that 48 makes it perfect. Is that left one equiped with an Unitas? Grtz,Dom

Thank you!

No, the 140th Anniversary model has an in-house caliber 22 movement, which was original a pocketwatch movement from 1921... Minerva never used Unitas, only Montblanc! Yours, Adam ...  

Great

Timepieces. Honest and real watches to be treasured! Dom

Interesting similarity to the layout on an LM101.

I wonder if perhaps this influenced that movement design?

Fantastic trio. Here's one I have.

Youโ€™ve got a dream collection. Always stick up a bit longer when these watches are shown. No words can be found, speechless.

Thank you for your kind words,

I wish I still had the gold one. I remember when I tried on a 38mm and thought it was too large! Incredible how things have changed!

Memories are always gold!

Did you have the Pythagore Gold edition? It is rather rare! With caliber 48 or 49? Regarding the size: nowadays 38-39 mm is again a menโ€™s size!
