CONDITION
The dial and hands are in excellent original condition with no evident restoration. The case shows honest, light surface wear consistent with a ~65-year-old watch — entirely expected and acceptable on a vintage piece of this age. The caseback hallmarks are crisp and legible. The movement has not been recently serviced to my knowledge.
