Condition

The watch presents well for its age. The dial has developed an attractive vintage patina, and the applied hour markers remain bright and reflective.

The acrylic crystal shows light surface scratching consistent with age and normal wear. The case has expected signs of use, including light scratches and wear. The Kalbé alligator leather strap also shows signs of previous wear but remains a nice vintage pairing for the watch.

Please review all photographs carefully, as they form part of the item’s description.

Running/Service

The watch is running and keeping time. However, since it is a vintage mechanical watch and service history is unknown, please note that the sale is as-is.

A handsome and increasingly hard-to-find vintage Swiss dress watch that would make an excellent addition to any collection.
