Case shows signs of general wear with light scratches, marks and tarnishing, there are some dints to the case middle and to the case back. Glass has a mixture of light scratches, scuff marks and what looks like dried glue, hands are tarnished and the blue has worn off a part of the minute hand. Dial has some marks from the hands and some lumps near the twelve o'clock, two o'clock and three clock positions visible under certain lights.
