Not many watches on the market can match the simple but unique look of the incredibly coveted Minerva Heritage Ref. #A 175-A8B. The Heritage is a throw back to another era, and this is a very special limited edition piece of only 300 ever produced! This extremely rare timepiece features a beautiful, highly polished 316L Stainless Steel case that measures approximately 43mm (case to crown) x 11.5mm (high). Behind the high-quality, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, is a superb cream colored dial with two sub-dials with sub-seconds at nine o'clock and 45 minute register for the chronograph at three o'clock. The outermost portion of the dial contains a seconds scale for the chronograph function and a minute scale. Beneath the 6 o'clock, "SWISS MADE" is written in tiny letters. This stunning dial is topped with luminous gold-tone hour markers and matching hour, minute, and second hands. The crown and pushers are crafted from solid Stainless Steel. This watch also has an exhibition caseback, fastened with five screws, putting the beautiful Swiss Mechanics on full display. The Heritage houses a vintage Venus caliber 175 hand wind movement designed by Andre Frey and produced at the former Fabrique d'Ebauches Vénus S.A. in Moutier Switzerland between 1940 and 1964. Around the perimeter of the casebook is a signature, reference number, and serial number engraving. This incredible timepiece is complete with a brown aftermarket Genuine Calf Leather Two-Piece Strap that measures approximately 20mm in width and can fit up to a 9-inch size wrist, and is enclosed by a Stainless Steel Tang Buckle. In today’s market, it is virtually impossible to come by this circa 1999 watch in Brand New condition such as this one. This is a rare opportunity to own an incredibly sought after timepiece of an incredibly limited run!

This timeless piece will ship exactly as photographed in BRAND NEW condition in an incomplete set with its original Box. It also comes with a FREE $20,000.00 Certified Insurance Appraisal, Certificate of Authenticity, and a FREE 2-year Guarantee!
