Overall in good condition with fine crazing over all surfaces, some of that crazing on the top has discoloured slightly but there are no obvious chips or cracks, the dial is in good order with a small radial scratch between 5 and 7 and just some general discolouration, very minor, the brass bezel is discoloured and tarnished, the movement is uninspected, it does not currently function and will presumably need a complete overhaul if not replacement.
