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 tarnish. It appears that someone tried to clean this bird box, but it turned the box green all over in between the engraving throughout the case. The bottom of the box has scratches, dents, and shows signs of wear. The lid is possibly a later replacement that does not fit perfectly, it is not secured properly to the box. The bird does not always go back into the box properly when done functioning. The lever that activates the bird box is sticky and the operator needs to push down slightly after pulling it to activate. The movement is working at the time of cataloging, however this watch is sold in “as-is” condition and we recommend a full service and overhaul.
