Condition of the watch: • Aesthetic: Overall good vintage condition. The steel case retains its original lines with natural patina and light micro-scratches from use. The dial and its colored hands are very well preserved. The crystal shows a slight crack at 5 o’clock. • Functionality: The watch runs but requires a service. The chronograph hand does not align with 12, the pushers need lubrication, and the mechanism should be serviced. Photos speak for themselves. No returns accepted.
