    Up for sale is this Vulcain Minstop. Honestly I know very little about this model so I will try to describe the watch as best to my knowledge as I can.
    The vulcain Minstop comes in a 34mm case. Sharp case in good condition. The silver dial has a sunburst finish and is blemish free,almost mint condition. The half moon black indicator is a 60 minute timer which is reset by the top pusher above the crown. Dial is signed "West Germany" at 6. . It runs and keep time but I am unaware of service history. Comes with a vintage-looking leather strap which has been lightly used. Overall, the watch is in fantastic condition.
    I am asking $450 net to me shipped. Payment by Bank wire or PayPal. Feel free to drop me a pm if you may have any questions. References available upon request. Please see pics for condition of the watch. Thanks for looking.

    Gavin

    Nice watch. Can The timer be paused/stopped then restarted? Does it count up (ie normal chrono function) or count down?

    Your watch is a "Parking Meter" Watch-I owned a Rodania with a similar dial and I have seen a few others
    When one parked at a parking meter in the big city and put their nickel in the meter for an hour's time
    one would the set the meter on their watch to 0 and it would count the time down so they would know when to get back to the car to avoid a parking ticket
    Very cool watch by a good watch making company with a fabulous dial
    Good Luck with your sale
