What do you think of my soon to arrive Minerva VD 712 with a Valjoux 72 inside?
Remarks? Impressions? ...? Have a nice day! Bart ...
Uhh,- thats a nice one !
Always liked the old, small-ish steel chrono's with a really nice collum wheel movement. Valjoux 72 is an all time great. Think what a watch in this quality this would cost, if it was sold new from leading watch compagny today. Yours Jacob / Copenhagen
I agree, I prefer chrono's from the 40ties to the 70ties

Love it 😍
Congratulations in advance. The Valjoux 72 is looking good. This model reminds me of the 3 register Minerva AVUS which also used the Valjoux 72 🤝
Thank you!
Here it says Minerva AVUS (also?) had Venus 152? www.watchprosite.com Kind regards, Bart
WOW! That is a very cool watch, and a superb example, congrats!
..and it's the famous 'strange' O or zero below VD 712 ;-)
