Minerva, Cal. 20CH, 36 mm dial size, fancy design lugs, chronograph, two-tone dial, 18 karat rose gold, circa 1940s. The rare 18-karat rose gold case is a large size for a non-waterproof case of this era, and the stepped lugs are reminiscent of the 38mm size. The silver-two-tone dial, which has been transformed into a champagne color, is an elaborate combination of printed and applied indexes, and has a wonderful taste for aging with texture. It is equipped with the company's own Cal.20CH, which has a wonderfully curved and beveled finish.
