1990s Minerva Pythagore A481 Aviation Black Cal. 48 34mm
Here we have a 1990s Minerva Pythagore A481 Aviation Black Cal. 48. In 1943, a time-only Pythagore watch featuring the Calibre 10-48 movement was introduced. The name comes from the way the watch's inner workings are arranged, following the Golden Ratio—an intriguing mathematical concept linked to beauty, first explored by the ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras. Featuring a 34mm satin-brushed stainless steel case that gently curves over your wrist, with finely tapered, flat-ended lugs. Its brushed curved flanks lead to a comfortable lug-to-lug length of 41.5mm and a case thickness of just 8.5mm. On the right side, a deep knurled signed crown. A smooth brushed bezel holds a slightly domed sapphire crystal above a matte black dial. An outer minute track features the small 24-hour scale above the larger Arabic numerals coated in Radium, marking the hours. Elegant Cathedral hands filled with the same lume sit above a recessed subdial. At noon, the Minerva motif completes this vintage-inspired pilot's watch. On the reverse, a screw-down exhibition case back is engraved with the watch's details around its edge. Inside a manually wound Minerva Cal. 48, 17 jewels, beating at a leisurely 18,000 beats per hour. Expertly decorated in Cotes de Geneve. It comes paired with its 18mm Minerva leather strap and signed pin buckle.
