Info:

This watch has just been fully serviced The case, dial and bracelet are unrestored, no re-polishing – as a result there is some lovely vintage wear and tear, but it has survived well – there are minor scratches in the glass and a few little chips around the edge. The case has not been re-polished and there are some minor surface scratches – the case chamfers are still pretty sharp, overall the case is great. Dial, the lume appears to be original and the markers are a slightly lemony colour with old honeycomb finish – the hands seem to be missing most of their lume now, but they do shine a bit under UV, the hands all appear to be original and the dial is unmarked. The bracelet is original, it is a little worn but it's in pretty good shape compared to many from this date.
