CASE & BRACELET
The stainless steel case exhibits light signs of gentle polishing in the past with some signs of previous use. The unsigned crown
and the pump pushers are believed to be original to the watch. The screw-down case back is in good condition with some scratches but deep, highly legible factory serial markings. The watch comes supplied on a 2pc handmade leather strap.
DIAL & HANDS
The original silver dial is in very well-preserved vintage condition, showing gentle aging with no obscene elements of damage present. The strontium lume plots have aged to a grey color, under UV light inspection all of the lume plots remain intact though a few of the plots exhibit minor degradation. The original strontium-lumed dauphine hands match the dial well, and are complemented by a blued seconds hand. Under UV light inspection the hour hand retains the original lume but exhibits a minor lume repair, and the minute hand is fully intact.
ACCESSORIES
