The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

OVERALL CONDITION: Very good, for a watch of this vintage
CASE: A few surface scratches visible on the caseback and case
DIAL: The original silvered dial has developed a warm patina. There are some age spots on the periphery of the dial and a scratch left by the tool mark near the centre of the dial. The lume plots have been reapplied, they react briefly when exposed to UV light
MOVEMENT: Ticking at the time of cataloguing. However, we do not test the movement for accuracy. A service is recommended.
