There is a small dent to the back door (on the inside but visible from the outside also). The door doesn't quite close flush with the body. Two of the bun feet are dented, one more prominent than the other. There is a small dent to the top panel. There are some light surface scratches to both sides and some heavier scratches to the silver around the dial. The dial appeares to be in good order. There are some surface nibbles to each of the turquoise cabochons. The collet settings on two look to have signs of wear. Movement ticks when wound. We cannot guarrantee any of the watches to be in working order. Hallmarks clear.
