Condition Report
<li>Movement is currently functioning.
<li>Movement has scratches, marks and tarnishing commensurate with general wear visible to the naked eye. Scratches also present to the edges of the plates. Movement has some play.
<li>Movement is plated 1556 however this is a calibre used in Day-Date watches. Based on the differential wear to the plates and some of the graunching present on screws this looks to be a plate swap during repair, the movement is actually likely a 1565.
<li>Dial appears to be in an average condition with some light marks and scratches when viewed under a 4x loupe.
<li>Hands show marks and tarnishing when viewed under a x4 loupe.
<li>Glass has scratches and marks.
<li>Case shows scratches, marks and dints.
<li>Crown screws down and has light scratches and marking.
