This is a rare 18k rose gold chronograph silver dial with Minerva's famous Cal. 20CH manufactured in the 1940s. The rare 18k rose gold case is a moderate 33mm size but has a sense of solidity that only a solid gold case can have. The bezel is thin and the dial is designed to be large, giving it a presence like a 35~36mm size. The dial is an elaborate construction combining printed and applied indexes, and combined with the 18k gold case, it is a gem with a wonderful taste of luxury. It is equipped with the in-house Cal. 20CH, which has a beautiful curved line.
