Condition Report
Movement is currently functioning, the movement would benefit from a service, it is rather dirty and has signs of tarnishing. The third wheel cock has cardboard under it, possibly in an attempt to increase end shake of the pivot. The case is dirty and shows signs of general wear with light scratches, marks and tarnishing, the decoration is slightly rubbed. The pendant bow is loose, and the screw that attaches it is even looser. Hands are lightly scratched and tarnished, but otherwise look to be in a generally pleasing condition, the dial is in a similar state with some heavier discolouration between the seven and nine o'clock positions. The glass bears some scratches, marks and chips.
