Overall in very good condition. When viewed in person, the deep blue areas of the enameled surfaces are less purple in tone. The enamel on the outer edge of the dial with very minute losses, visible upon close inspection. The pewter surfaces with minor fine scratches and tarnish consistent with age and gentle handling. Minor traces of polish residue to the recessed areas as visible in the catalogue illustration. Functionality of the movement is not guaranteed and it could need service at the buyer's discretion. With finely detailed hammered surfaces and a richly toned enamel, this is the only example known of model 0629 in this size.
