FS: Marvin vintage very rare rectangle case MINT

Hello,

I'm selling this very rare and very interesting Marvin rectangle vintage watch, probably from 30's or 40's.
It is mint and have just been serviced. Hands have no lume, but i can add some upon request, even if I just find it perfect like this.
It has a very interesting case locked with an ingenious rotating bars system to make it "water resistant". Obviously it is not today, but this detail is nice to know.
Also note the screwed crown, rare detail especially for this period.
It is in really great shape, no scratch on the dial or the crystal. Only few spots to notice on the dial due to its age and showing dial is fully original.
Dimensions are 22mm x 33mm. 9mm thick. 16mm lug to lug. This makes it a classic men watch from these years, but can today easily be worn by ladies.

Price for this rare beauty is 1350 USD including shipped worldwide.
