拍品的狀況可能存在極大差異，而由於其性質使然，拍品難以處於完美無瑕的狀態。拍品均以拍賣時的狀況出售。

The case is in good condition with normal signs of wear and has been polished. The numbers are visible between the lugs. The backs of the lugs show evidence of a bracelet and the case back has been polished. The inside case back is stamped '1600' and 'IV.69.,' and has watchmaker's marks. The dial shows some signs of age and appears to be original. The lume plots have darkened and the plot at 1 o’clock has deteriorated and the plot at 10 o’clock has been lost, but is next to it on the dial. There is some loss of varnish to the dial near 3 and 8 o’clock. The hands have been relumed. The date changes as the hands pass midnight. The crown is tight when winding and needs a service to work smoothly. The movement is in working order at the time of cataloging, consistent with the age of the watch. The movement has not been tested for accuracy. A service is recommended given the age of the watch.
