Features: Matte white enamel dial, raised Arabic hour markers, subsidiary seconds, screw-down case back, original signed crown, domed crystal, circa 1965-66
Box & Papers: No
Condition: In overall very good all original condition. The dial is good with some minor spotting but nothing major. Often times these dials age very poorly but this one has remained in very good overall condition. The case has some smaller superficial scratches and some tool scratches on the case back. The case does not seem to show any signs of overpolishing and still has the sharp edges, something that seems to be lost often with these. The movement has been recently serviced and keeps accurate time when tested on the machine.
