VINTAGE CONDITION REPORT (Honest & Transparent): This estate find has been carefully evaluated and dried down to ensure reliable vintage performance. Please review the details below before purchasing: 1. MECHANICS (Excellent): This is a fully functional, running mechanical watch (NOT a non-running parts piece). The automatic rotor winds smoothly, the seconds hand sweeps immediately upon movement, and it keeps steady vintage time. The unique crown quick-set correctly advances the calendar wheels when pushed straight inward, and the hacking function works perfectly. 2. THE DIAL (Oxidation Present): There is visible aging, spotting, and oxidation damage on the right-hand side of the blue dial surface, primarily localized near the 2 to 6 o'clock sectors due to historical moisture exposure. The watch has since been thoroughly and professionally desiccated/dried out to completely halt further aging and protect the internal movement. 3. COSMETICS (Standard Wear): The stainless steel case and original link bracelet look great for their age, showing standard, honest hairline scratches and surface scuffs appropriate for a 50+ year old vintage timepiece. No major dents or deep gouges. The crystal is clear and highly presentable. 4.
