More Information

Overall in honest untouched condition, the case now rather faded down to a lighter mid brown almost walnut tone, old cracks and splits running through the case, two to each side of the dial with further cracking on the sides, dial with a few minor scratches, fret work to the right side looks to be a later replacement with less polish to the finish with the old original fret work still being retained inside, movement in good order but not tested for timekeeping, comes with an adjustable brass pendulum and winding key, key present for the case doors.
