Condition Report
The watch is in reasonably good overall condition, the case has light surface scratches and marks from general wear and tear, the hinges are in good order, the mineral crystal has a few small surface marks and scratches. The dial is clean but has a hairline from the 12 o’clock position down to the centre of the dial. The gilt hands have some tarnishing. The movement is currently fully wound but not running, balance is free and fusee chain good, a full service should rectify this issue, as the movement is struggling with congealed oil.
Fellows & Sons do not guarantee the working order or accuracy of nay watches sold.
