The case has been left completely unpolished, showing honest signs of age while retaining excellent shape and originality. The silver/white dial displays a beautifully even natural patina, giving the watch a warm and attractive vintage appearance. Hands and hour pips have aged consistently to a creamy tone, adding to the overall harmony of the dial. The acrylic crystal shows only light marks commensurate with age and remains clean and presentable.
