Condition Report:
Case: The case is preserved in excellent overall condition for its age. It features thick, strong lugs fully retaining their proportions. The surface is presented with only a few light dings and scuffs. The case edges and bevels remain nice and defined. The hallmark on the caseband remains deep and well-preserved. The hallmark on the lower left lug is slightly rubbed but still clearly visible. There is a caseback sticker that remains intact. The crown has been replaced during a service in the past.
Dial: The dial is preserved in excellent overall condition for its age. It is presented with some aging marks towards the tachymeter scale, with a few lighter marks throughout the dial observable under a loupe. The raised enamel texts are exceptionally well-preserved with hardly any loss of material.
Movement: The present example displays a perpetual calendar chronograph movement that functions properly, date advances past midnight during the cataloguing process. Please note that the movement has not been tested for accuracy. A service is recommended.
