Condition Report
Movement is not currently functioning, one point of interest is third wheel jewel appears to be upside down, therefore is is strongly suggested that watch will need an overhaul. Case shows signs of wear commensurate with age and material with light scratches, marks and tarnishing but the majority of these marks appear to be superficial and should polish out. The case decoration looks to be in a generally pleasing condition, although slightly rubbed towards the edges, the pendant bow is slack, the case release catch is sluggish in operation. The hour hand has broken off at some point and the minute hand has been bent down in such a way it now makes contact with the dial, other than this slight deformation, the minute hand appears to be in a reasonable condition, with little tarnishing, the dial looks to be in a pleasing condition with light tarnishing to some of the numerals and its surface visible at certain angles under the light, glass is dirty and lightly scratched in places.
