The watch is not in working order at the time of the catalogue description. This should be considered in relation to its age. We do not guarantee future functioning. It has not been tested over an extended period, and we therefore cannot guarantee either timekeeping accuracy or power reserve. Servicing or restoration may have been carried out on the entire watch, possibly resulting in replacement of components that may therefore not be original (dial, hands, movement parts, strap, etc.). As the watch has been opened, we cannot guarantee its water resistance. Unless otherwise specified, we have no information regarding the last service performed, and we recommend having the piece serviced.
