CASE Case, by our observation has not been polished previously, with crisp and well delineated hallmarks to the back of lugs. Case overall with scratches and scuffs consistent with normal wear and age. Left side case band, bezel and lugs, all with an even amount of surface scuffs and scratches. Upper left lug with two very superficial nicks visible under close observation. Lower left lug band with a more apparent surface scratch. Wear and oxidation to the buckle. Crystal glazing with some small surface scuffs. DIAL Dial in excellent condition. MOVEMENT The movement is running at time of cataloging, however it was not tested for the accuracy of time or duration of the power reserve and may need service at the buyer's discretion. Please note that Sotheby's does not guarantee the future working of the movement. ***Please be advised that the bands on this watch are made of materials derived from endangered or otherwise protected species (i.e. alligator and crocodile) and thus not sold with the watch, they are for display purposes only. We will remove these bands prior to international shipping.*** Please note that the insert pillow to the presentation box appears associated and is not matching.
