The gold dial is clean and legible, with baton markers and hands presenting well under normal viewing.

The strap is a brand‑new Apollo genuine leather replacement, so it feels fresh and comfortable straight away.
Please study the photos closely as they form part of the description. Vintage pieces may show small marks, patina or plating wear consistent with age and previous use.
