Condition:
Slight damage to the enamel in one corner and small chips around the key orifice on the back panel. Some scuff marks to the leather case exterior and some fraying to the silk interior in places. Old white sticky label to base, only remnants, nothing legible. Watch ticks when wound but the hands do not appear to move so in need of some attention. Hands don't adjust properly, possibly not on central pivot firmly?? We cannot guarantee any of the watches to be in working order. No numbers on back plate above the agate base.
