- MOVEMENT: High grade manual wind mechanical movement  (based on  ETA 2512 caliber), 17 jewels. Signed Cartier. Inc Swiss.

The movement was recently serviced by a master watchmaker and me (cleaned, oiled with fine Moebius Swiss oils and adjusted at a timing machine, runs well and keeps time).

This is not a quartz (battery) watch, you will have to manually wind the movement by rotating upwards the side crown, many revolutions until you will feel it stops, rotate it gently.

- DIAL: Original, off white color has a light beige patina from age, it has wear and details more at borders that will be almost hidden by the case closed, vintage with some personality! 

Please observe the images. 

Dial is signed: "Must de Cartier, Swiss".

HANDS: original black sword hands in reasonable good conditions for the age.
