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.

The case with much of the painted/paste line inlay lacking, the simulated tortoiseshell veneer with shrinkage cracking overall. The loop handle tarnished.
The dial with chipping about winding holes. Tarnishing to hands.
The movement presently ticking and striking but requires a service and clean. Some residue of old oil evident. The steelwork with tarnishing overall.
