Condition Report
<li>Movement is currently functioning.
<li>Movement has scratches, marks and tarnishing commensurate with general wear visible when viewed under a 4x loupe. Rotor is exceptionally stiff and does not rotate easily under motion of the wrist, this will require attention to restore function.
<li>Dial appears to be in an average condition with some light marks and scratches when viewed under a 4x loupe. We believe that several of the Roman numeral hour markers have been stuck down using adhesive.

In addition the numeral for five is upside down when compared to 6, 7 and 8.
