This very scarce and collectable piece of historical automobilia is in the very good overall vintage original condition in which it was located with the light overall imperfections that are consistent with age/use/storage. Timer will wind, start, run, stop, and reset. The digital register does stick. It will likely be required to be inspected and cleaned by a watchmaker for it to fully operate and is worthy of a cleaning or restoration. Considering that this is a mechanical instrument at least 57 years old that has been in storage for decades, it is being sold “as is, as found”. Please note that photos are an integral part of the description. Buyer pays shipping.
