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 is very good, with light settled dust visible at the edges under magnification. The case is very good with several light scratches and scuffs commensurate with age and normal wear. The crown has been worn and the Calatrava cross is completely rubbed off. The movement is in working order at the time of cataloging, consistent with the age of the watch. The quickset is functioning, and the date progresses properly when the hour hand passes 12. The movement has not been tested for accuracy. A service is recommended given the age of the watch.
