Condition

The movement is running at time of cataloguing, however it was not tested for the accuracy of time or duration of the power reserve and may need service at the buyer's discretion. Please note that Sotheby's does not guarantee the future working of the movement. The dial is in a very good condition. There are some minor scuffs to the case which are likely consistent with little use of the watch, there is a dent to the underside of the band on the right side of the watch which is not visible to the naked eye when you are wearing the watch. The crown has scratches and the chronograph pushers are in a good condition.
