Movement runs, chronograph works, and minute register records. The repeater is loud and functions well. Hands set smoothly, though the lever might need adjustment as it slips out of set mode. Some small scratches are present, but it’s generally in good aesthetic condition. The dial is overall good, with a minor chip at the edge below 6 o’clock, hidden when the bezel is in place. The case is heavy and in good condition with light scuffs. Covers close securely.
