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。

OVERALL CONDITION: Very good, considering its age

CASE: Shows signs of wear, surface scratches and dings. But the faceted case still retains its proportions and anlges

DIAL: Original dial has age spots, but the print is clear and legible. Lume plots on the dial and hands react briefly to UV light, as it should

MOVEMENT: Ticking at the time of cataloguing. The chronograph is working. However, a service is recommended.

STRAP/ BUCKLE: New
