Condition Report:
Case: case in good condition with light surface wear and scuffs consistent with age. Case with previous polish in our view. Warm and attractive patina throughout. Lugs retain robust shape. Please note that the buckle is not marked or signed.

Dial: Dial in good overall condition with light surface wear and some dust. Some very light warm coloring. Lume plots and lumed hands do not react to UV light.

Movement: Chronograph operating. Starting to the bottom pusher, and resetting to the top pusher.
The movement is running at time of cataloging, however it was not tested for the accuracy of time or duration of the power reserve and may need service at the buyer's discretion. Please note that Sotheby's does not guarantee the future working of the movement.
