The case back is in generally good order but with some minor surface scratches. There are some minor scratches to the sides of the case also. The glass has some minor scratches conducive with age and use. The dial appears to be quite discoloured with some minor spotting. The watch is not currently working, however the sweep hand moves when putting the hands forward. We cannot guarantee any of the watches to be in working order. The strap is sound but showing signs of wear and the gilt buckle has visible oxidisation.
