Condition Report
Movement is currently functioning, it would benefit from a clean and an overhaul but appears to be in a generally pleasing condition, if dirty. The case is in generally good condition, there is some light wear to the engraving on the front cover, and light scratches and marks elsewhere with a few very light knocks, the dial has debris and marks with a small isolated fracture at the top of the subsidiary seconds dial and a small hairline crack near the five o'clock position. The inner cover engraving is in good condition. The hands are slightly out of synch and will need adjusting but this may be mostly due to the fact that the minute hand has a bend in it. Glass looks to be in a generally good condition.
