Condition Report
The watch is in well used condition, but appears to have never been polished. The case remains sharp, and the chamfered lugs appears be entirely unmolested, cosmetically, the case and crystal contain numerous hairline scratches, however upon inspection under a 10x loupe, all of the scratches appear to be hairline. The silver dial appears to be unmolested, and is beginning to build some even patina.

Mechanically, the piece is functioning well, and keeping excellent time as of: 31/05/19, and the date is changing normally.

Note: this movement does not incorporate a quick-set date function, and therefore in order to advance the date, one must advance the time by 24 hours.
