Here is your answer, courtesy of our friends at replica Cartier w31077u2 Men's watch ismo.Hodinkee in Breitling, Breitling Cosmonaute, Breitling Navitimer, Chronograph, LIP, Vintage Wednesday, December 17, 2008 at 10:59AM As everyone knows, we here at Hodinkee enjoy a good vintage watch, especially those with history and/or character.The Vulcain watch brand in particular, though not widely known in today’s world, has a long history of colorful and unique pieces.We’ve written about Vulcain’s given to Presidents of the United States, chronographs, and ‘perfect’ divers watches.Today we bring you another in a long line of great looking vintage Vulcains: the Min-Stop.
Known as the ‘Parking Meter’ watch, due to its resemblance to a curb-side parking meter, this 1960‘s watch features a black dial with a replica Cartier w20055d6 Men's watch white half-moon shaped sub-dial with 60 minute register.Luminous hour markers and hands and a 1/5 seconds track along the outer edge of the dial give it a but well structured presence without looking cluttered.A single pusher above the crown resets the counter.The case has a great shape to it, and you just get this feeling it would look great on your wrist while driving a 60's sports car.And as if that weren’t enough for this Cold War era watch, it’s even signed ‘West Germany’ on the dial.
Now we're not sure why a Swiss company would replica Cartier wj11951g watch brand their dial with West Germany, but if that’s not a conversation starter we don’t know what is.This Min-Stop sold before we could publish this post.Let us know if you have any leads on another of these beauties! .
