Condition Report
The movement is currently working, but will require an overhaul, the movement is quite dirty and bears some signs of previous servicing, but otherwise appears to be in a generally pleasing aesthetic condition, the case shows signs of general wear with light scratches, marks and tarnishing, the majority of which should polish out, however please be advised, there are a few dints to the case back and around the sides, the pendant bow shows no sign of slackness, dial looks to be in a pleasing condition, as do the hands, but there are some areas of what looks to be surface rust on them, glass is quite dirty and covered with a multitude of minute scratches, but otherwise looks to be free of any obvious damage.
