DIAL & HANDS

The original and beautifully aged silver dial has achieved a charming warmth with a subtle speckling patina. There is some wear on the outer edge of the dial that comes into contact with the blue tachometer scale, though it has little aesthic effect on the overall dial presence. The red telemeter scale remains fully intact. The hands all remain original to the watch, with the center chronograph hands and sub-dial hands being a refined blued steel. The alpha-style hour and minute hands are also in excellent condition.

ACCESSORIES

None. The watch is keeping time and is functioning perfectly, backed by a 1-year warranty on accurate timekeeping.
