Case is scratched and scuffed as a result of general wear with multiple chips and dints to the sharp corners, case back shows some superficial imprint barks possibly as a result of the watch having been worn on a one piece fabric strap, would benefit from refinishing as many of these marks may polish out. Black leather strap and buckle are not authentic and has been lightly worn, not in need of immediate replacement. Crown is authentic, pushers may or may not be original.
Dial is in fair condition with some discolouration to the luminous batons and hand inserts in keeping with the age. Plastic glass is cracked at the 14 marker and may benefit from being replaced.
