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 present lot is offered in very good overall condition. The dial and hands are very good and appear to be original. The dial displays nice uniform fade to the gray, with some spotting. The lume is beginning to show some loss at 1, 7 and 11. The bezel is likely a service replacement. It is in excellent condition with some extremely light scuffs. The crown and pushers are service replacements. The case and bracelet are very good. The case and bracelet have scratches and scuffs throughout. The bracelet is marked “7836”, and the end links are “380”. The inner case back contains recent watchmaker mark from “8/20”. The chronograph functions and the date progress properly when the hour hand passes midnight at the time of cataloging. 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.
