Description

Dear All,

for sale is an extremely rare Minerva Pythagore with a salmon dial. The watch is NEW, NEVER WORN, NEVER OPENED, NEVER POLISHED, as you can see in my pictures. It is a real time capsule!
It is impossible to find one more example in a NEW, NOS, NEVER WORN condition, like mine.
The watch has the Minerva calibre 48, a manufactural movement from the Maison, which runs and keep the time very well and accurate. The movement is designed after the rule of Pythagores: the golden ratio.
The watch comes with the genuine blue ostrich Minerva strap, if you see the holes of the strap, you will see that the watch was never ever in any wrist.
The watch has its original box and paper, the box is loosing the leather cover , the warranty card is filled and stamped, but still undated.
I simply can’t wear this beautiful watch, it would be a shame to wear it and would like to conserve it on that shape in which I get it!
I am a private person, therefore no warranty, no exchange, no returns from my side.
I am not interested in any trades.

Truly yours,

Adam

Hi Adam A rare find you have there, What is the case size, thickness and lug to lug size of the watch?
Dear Sham, yes, indeed it is a rare bird and hard to find, thank you!
The diameter of the case is 33,65 mm, thickness is 8,7 mm, I must measure the lug to lug size.
The size of the watch is not too little even for a stronger men’s wrist, because of the bright salmon dial and the very good proportions of the whole watch.
The hands are heated blue, matching very well to the colour of the dial.
