The case is in very good condition overall. The blue enamel features flower motifs and shows no hairlines. However, multiple decorative quality diamonds are missing from the case back. The yellow gold cuvette and hinged back have surface scratches and some patina. The dial is heavily patinated, with light surface scratches throughout, particularly near the 4 o’clock position. There are also some tiny dark spots near the centre arbour. The movement is functioning correctly.
