CONDITION
The Watch is in very good, and all-original condition. The case has retained very sharp edges with the original brushed grain still visible on the upper part of the steel case.
There is some light wear around the case, including a small nick on the upper left edge, but is overall in good condition, and no major distractions.
The dial and hands are all original. There is some faint blotching on the black dial, and light flaking on some of the text on the upper left hand corner of the tachymetre. The lume is intact on the dial and hour hand, while the minute hand lume has been knocked out.
The watch has recently been serviced and is running well, and the chronograph is working as it should.-- SALES PRICE --
