Condition Report
Movement is currently functioning, but would benefit from an overhaul. There are signs of previous servicing and discolouration to the bars but otherwise it looks to be in a generally good condition. The case shows signs of wear with scratches, marks and tarnishing, especially to the back of the case, The plating has come off the case in many areas. The dial looks to be in a pleasing condition with a hairline crack apparent over the seven o'clock position. Hands have some surface rust. Glass is filthy with some light scratches, but otherwise is clear. Travelling case is work and the silver is quite heavily tarnished.
