The movement is running at the time of cataloguing, however it may require service at buyer's expense soon. The dial has some spotting and discoloration toward the edge, most noticeably at 5 o'clock. The case is quite eye-catching and lends a very unusual and distinctive feel to the watch overall. The enamel is in good order and the chasing too, with some surface scuffs to the case back. For the dial, the Extract says 'raised Arabic hour markers in gold'.

Watches in water-resistant cases have been opened to examine movements but no warranties are made that the watches are currently water-resistant.

Since we are not professional conservators or restorers, we urge you to consult with a restorer or conservator of your choice who will be better able to provide a detailed, professional report.
