The movement is running smoothly, and the surfaces appear to be in good, clean condition. The hands adjust easily, and all calendar functions are advancing correctly. However, please note that the pin protruding from the Gerald Genta setting pin has become a little too recessed, making it unable to push the setting buttons in far enough to advance them. A longer pin smoothly advances these settings. The dial is in very good condition, and the case is in good condition with some light scuffs.
