The watch is running at the time of cataloguing. This should be considered in relation to its age. We do not guarantee its future performance. It has not been tested over an extended period, and we therefore cannot guarantee the accuracy of the movement or the power reserve. Services or restorations may have been carried out on the entire watch, potentially resulting in the replacement of parts that may not be original (dial, hands, movement parts, strap, etc.). As the watch has been opened, we do not guarantee its water resistance. Unless otherwise stated, we have no information regarding the last service performed and recommend having the piece serviced.
