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, considering its age
CASE: Shows signs of wear consistent with a watch from the late 1950s. There are scratches visible on the case and caseback, the hallmark is crisp and still visible under the top-left lug. There are scuff
DIAL: Nice and original. There are some age spots and minor blemishes on the dial, consistent with its age. The hyphen between the printed Day and Date is missing, only traces of the original radium lume plots on the hour markers remain, the rest lost to time. These lume plots still react briefly to UV light. The hands appear to have been changed during service and react to UV light
MOVEMENT: Ticking at the time of cataloguing. All the functions are working. However, we do not test the movement for accuracy. A service is recommended.
BRACELET: Shows signs of wear, bracelet length: 190 mm. (including watch head)
