Condition Report

Revive
Fair
Star iconGood
Very Good
Like New

The watch is in overall good condition.

The case shows light signs of wear throughout, commensurate with age, and has been lightly polished.

The pushers and crown are correct for the watch and in good condition.

The 1, 3, 6, 7, 9, and 11 lume plots have partially deteriorated and the lume at the hour markers has dirtied.

The dial is in good overall condition with few light marks and has sub-registers that are dirtied.

The hands do not react to UV light and appear to have been painted.

The bracelet is later and in good condition with light polishing previously.

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.
