The case shows signs of use throughout, commensurate with its age. The case back is engraved with a coat of arms. The inside of the case back is inscribed with CW.P. May 26, 2003 and G.G. Frelinghuysen Jr. July 25, 1927. The Cartier number and gold mark on the bow are rubbed but still visible. The dial displays visible signs of age throughout, with dust floating around it, including a large dust ball. The movement is not running.
