Condition Report
Movement is currently functioning although the chronograph mechanism is not, it is also filthy, it will require a service and some replacement parts. The button has come off the winding stem. The case shows signs of general wear with light scratches, marks and tarnishing, the majority of which do appear to be superficial and should polish out. There are some additional nicks to the case edges and some score marks to the case back. Where the bracelet is attached to the case, there is damage from where the bracelet may have been pulled, twisted or yanked. The bracelet itself is stretched, and lightly marked. Both case and bracelet would benefit from a clean. Glass has the odd scratch and what appears to be glue around the edge, dial possesses some light scratches to the white subsidiary dials, the hands are missing.
Due to the opening of the case back we recommend that this watch be resealed by an authorised technician before use near water.
