The present piece exemplifies how even minor brands are capable of surprising the modern-day collector with astounding vintage pieces, featuring striking designs of both case and dial. When such a piece arrives to us in the condition of the present watch, it truly represents a rare and unmissable opportunity for the collector of vintage and rare timepieces

The present Marvin chronograph features a very unusual case design, defined by the sculpted angular hinged lugs and hinged case back with inner additional back. Such a design is already showing influences of the trend typical of the 1960s and 1970s, characterized by elaborate sculpted case constructions. The details of the case are in excellent condition and a joy both to behold and to wear as well. The condition and attractiveness of the case is matched, and maybe even surpassed, by the black multi-scale dial. Featuring design elements typical of the 1940s and early 1950s - a very appealing contrast with its more modernist case - it sports a black gloss dial, today aged with a light matte patina, oversized subsidiary counters, and three scales in three different colors: the inner yellow one bearing the classical fifths of a second combined with five minutes Arabic divisions, the middle orange telemeter scale, and an outer white railway tachymeter scale. A true compendium of the traits most sought-after in vintage chronographs.
