The watch is in working order at the time of writing this catalogue. This should be considered in the context of its age. We do not guarantee its future operation. It has not been tested over an extended period and we therefore do not guarantee the accuracy of the movement or the power reserve. Servicing or restoration work may have been carried out on the entire watch, resulting in the replacement of parts which may therefore not be original (dial, hands, parts of the movement, strap, etc.). As the watch has been opened, we cannot guarantee its water resistance. Unless otherwise stated, we have no information regarding the last service carried out and we advise you to have the watch serviced.
