Re: I Will Post Photos Tonight
In Response To: I Will Post Photos Tonight ()

I have seen the Minerva dash timers that look like Heuers only in pictures. Were they contracted for and marketed by another company that specialised in supplying rally equipment? I have a 1967+- Minerva "Rally Timer". It is cased and "handles" like a hand held stopwatch but has the Valjoux 340 movement like an early dash mount Autavia. It's kind of neat.
Photos of this pair are on my home computer, and I can post them
: tonight; this pair is similar to other non-Heuer dashboard
: pairs, from other brands (for example, there is a Minerva set).
: In my opinion, not the same built quality or beautiful design
: that we see from the Heuers.
