The movement is running, but the handset couldn’t be operated at the time of cataloguing. The minute hammer sounds somewhat tinny on the gong and would benefit from an adjustment. The dial bezel was not removed during cataloguing, but the dial seems to be in good overall condition. The case is in very good condition, with only a few minor scuffs and scratches.
