The case is generally in good condition. The blue enamel has been restored with soft enamel. The rose cut diamonds are of decorative quality. The outer lion motif was added later, including two chain jump rings. A chain is not included with the timepiece. The cuvette has likely been modified from a hinge to being screwed in. The dial shows wear commensurate with age, including a light hairline between 7 and 11 o’clock. The movement is not running.
