Condition Report
Movement is currently functioning, however the movement is dirty, there is some wear to the automatic work bridge and the rotor does have some play in it, so it would most likely benefit from a service. Case shows signs of general wear with light scratches, marks and tarnishing, there is a minor dint on one side of the case, the crown is slightly worn, the areas around the lugs and the lugs themselves have dints, scuff marks and noticeable nicks to the edge. The fluted bezel has the odd small nick to the raised points. The non-authentic strap is lightly used. Glass is scratched in areas, dial is tarnished around the edges, hands similarly so. A lot of detritus is trapped between the glass and dial.
