Condition Report
Movement is currently functioning, however it would benefit from an overhaul. The plates are tarnished and show signs of discolouration and there is some oil staining. The case shows signs of wear commensurate with material and age, with light scratches, marks and tarnishing. There is some slight rubbing to the decoration and the odd dint in the bezel but otherwise the case looks to be in a generally pleasing condition. The pendant bow is loose. Dial is lightly scratched and with some tarnishing, but overall appears to be in a good state, hands are tarnished, glass bears some light scratches and marking.
