Not many were produced, less survived, and hardly any currently available for sale worldwide is in such a pristine condition as this example. It has a rare dial version: sunburst silver background, black registers, orange details on the seconds scale, minute register and orange hands. The dial is in immaculate original condition. The case shows some wear, but nothing significant; it's in untouched condition, all edges sharp. Generally the watch is great condition considering its age. The movement runs strong, chronograph function works properly: starting, stopping and resetting to zero. Last overhaul in November 2023.
