Condition Report
Movement is currently functioning intermittently, the escapement sounds out of beat, and consequently once the 'doctor's stop work' has been activated, the escapement does not 'self start' once it has been disengaged. Some taper pins are missing from the movement, the dial is loose as a result. Case shows signs of general wear with light scratches, marks and tarnishing, dints are apparent to the bezel, milled designed to case middle is heavily rubbed, pendant bow is loose. Glass, dial and hands all look to be in a generally good condition, with some slight imperfections and tarnishing to detract from the overall effect.
