MECHANICAL / COSMETIC CONDITION NOTE:

Selling strictly AS-IS for parts, repair, or professional restoration. The balance wheel spins beautifully and completely freely when the watch is gently nudged, indicating that the balance staff is intact. However, the watch is currently NOT winding (the crown turns but does not engage or tension the mainspring).

Cosmetically, the case is in great vintage shape for its age, showing honest surface wear and light scratches, but no deep gouges or heavy damage. The dial has a wonderful, uniform vintage patina. The crystal shows light surface scuffing but remains clear.

Please review the high-resolution photos carefully to evaluate the cosmetic condition for yourself. Shipping includes secure, tracked packaging.
