Condition Report
Movement is currently functioning but would benefit from an overhaul. Cases show signs of general wear with light scratches, marks and tarnishing, case release spring shows signs of rust and therefore the case is quite hard to open, pendant bow is loose and looks incorrect, both cases would benefit from a clean. Glass bears some scratches and is filthy, dial looks to be in a generally pleasing condition but there are chips missing from around the edge and what looks like a small hairline crack in the centre, both hands are tarnished, minute hand is slightly curved to one side.
Please note that this lot does not come with box or papers.
