Purchasing information
  • The quartz movement is currently not functioning, whether this is due to the need for a new battery or may indicate a serious problem with the movement is unknown.
  • Movement appears to display some very light scratches under a 10x loupe.
  • Dial appears to show the bottom edge of the number four hour marker peeling away very slightly, this has likely been caused by an excess use of paint and is not noticeable unless very closely examined with a loupe. The rest of the dial appears to be in good condition.
  • Hands appear to be in good condition.
  • Case currently bears light scratches and several small chips.
  • Glass seems to bear one light and thin scratch down the centre.
  • Crown appears to be heavily dented and chipped as well as lightly scratched, cabochon has been lost and the crown appears to have been modified to suit.
  • Case back currently shows medium scratches.
  • Bracelet seems to have a number of light scratches and very scarce examples of pitting when examined under a 10x loupe. Approximately 15cm.
  • Clasp appears to have light scratches and pitting under close examination.
  • Watch comes with box. Box is heavily scratched and tarnished on the exterior and the outer cases seems to be rubbing away. Fabric interior appears to be discoloured and stained. Fellows do not guarantee the working order or accuracy of any lots sold.
