Manufactured in the 1940s, this Marvin timepiece is equipped with the renowned Valjoux 22 movement and features a highly sought-after 38mm clamshell waterproof case. It boasts an exceptionally rare black and gray two-tone multi-scale dial.

The striking black dial is densely packed with intricate details, including a telemeter, snail-style tachymeter, dual-minute tracks, and luminous Arabic numerals, creating a visually captivating layout. The two-tone color scheme enhances the sense of depth and intricacy, showcasing the remarkable dial designs characteristic of this era.

Additionally, the "MARVIN" logo and "SWISS MADE" markings are crafted using the gilt technique, further emphasizing its vintage charm.
