Thanks very much.
I search in all the usual places like C24, IG, forums etc.
I guess because I post often, I make friends and I let them what I’m searching for. They in turn let me know. And if they or I see something… we pass on the intel.
I also tend not to bargain with sellers. I just ask them for the price the would be happy with. If I can afford it then I pull the trigger. This builds relationships (especially with dealers) and again, they are happy to keep me at the open of their list for future pieces.

Oops I did it again … #NWA Minerva Pythagore grande Aviator
Friends, It brings me great joy to add this one to my little collection. I’ve search for this 38 mm for three years now. 😅 Sharing two quick shots. 🤝 ...
Huge congratulations on this wonderful addition 🎉🎊🎈
A lovely watch indeed - and glad you found one. My 34mm sibling saying hi 👋🏻 ...
Hello cousin ☺️
A bit hello to your Aviator 🙋🏻♂️ So the cathedral hands are lumed and the numbers are tritium yeah? I’m wondering why the dials do not say “T Swiss T” … 🤔
Who knows how they made their decisions back then 🤷🏻♂️
Immediate parts availability 😊🤷🏻♂️
Need to make doubly sure…
They do look it but Minerva was experimenting with different lines back then (you probably remember the Halloween orange on the TZ edition), so not 100% sure…
Yeah, I’m not 100% sure either
Looks like it but could be fauxtina as well … Maybe some of the others may know for sure. 🤝
Congrats! 🍾
I was just wondering how long it took you to find one before I click on your post..
Big congrats Marc! That one's a gem.
Total love for Arabic numerals and that Minerva does them just right. Again, congrats. M4
Congrats Marc aka NVMM also known as MNVGP 😁, she is a Beauty 👍😊
Lume looks like Tritium
Thank you Salman
Yeah, it does look like it but … no t Swiss t on the dial. So I’m not 100% sure 🤝
Fantastic NWA !
Congrats !! This Minerva is perfect! Enjoy in the best of health. Cheers Robin
Dude where do you keep finding these
Your Minerva finds and rare GPs are incredible. This is just perfect.
Ha ha 😅

Congratulations, Marc!
Another absolutely beautiful Minerva. Wear it in the best of health and happiness.
Thank you very much 🫶🏼
I now have all the 38 mm Pythagore Grandes model that weer made. I’ll do a family shot when I get a chance. 🤝
What a beautiful and classy looking watch
Glad to hear you eventually found one and it looks like the wait was worth it, wear and enjoy it in good health. Marc
Awesome piece, Marc! Congrats on completing the A482 collection!
Let's see the full Minerva collection family picture!
Thanks JB
So difficult to take a nice shot of three watches together. I promise to try and to get down to it soon. 🤝
Very nice Marc.
Just looking at yours versus its little sister that KMII posted. His is matching patina hands and numerals, versus yours which seem to be non matching. Both appealing looks though.
