Condition

Considering the age, the watch is in very good condition. Dial has minor marks that are barely visible to the naked eye. Sapphire crystal has scratches and it would be best if it's replaced. Case has light scratches all around, but nothing significant and it generally presents very decent. Same goes for the bracelet. It would be a great idea for the new owner if they disassemble the watch and clean it in ultrasonic to remove the years of grime in the tight spaces of the bracelet. It keeps time well and the date works as expected.


Additionally, please check the photos carefully and don't hesitate to contact me if you have questions.


Movement Service

The movement's service history is unknown and I haven't personally sent it for a service. Although it runs well, keep in mind you're buying a vintage watch. If you care for it to function properly in the future, a service will be needed.


Waterproof

The watch is waterproof, but the rating is not known to me. I can imagine it's 1-3 ATM, which means that it can be used to wash your hands or in rainy days. Anything more than that, like taking a shower with the watch or even worse, taking it for a swim, should be avoided. It needs to be pressure tested by a watchmaker to make sure that it's within the waterproof rating spec.


Returns

Returns are not accepted unless the watch is grossly misrepresented. Please contact me before buying if you have questions.


Shipping

The watch will be shipped within 3 working days via International Standard Shipping. You will be provided a tracking number as soon as shipment is handled. I will not be liable for any customs delays or fees on international orders. Please contact me if you have any questions about shipping.
