The case is in very good condition, displaying light surface scratches throughout and a few minor nicks on the back. It has undergone a previous light polish. The stem and bow have been restored and exhibit visible signs of patina. The enamel dial remains in generally good condition, with a slight enamel loss below the 12 o’clock position. The crown has difficulty setting the time and may require servicing at the buyer’s discretion. The movement is currently functioning.
