Our internal bench testing indicates excellent baseline gear health. Winding mechanics are fully functional. Flat performance achieves a staggering 300°+ amplitude, highlighting a robust mainspring. Positional timegrapher variance is noted in vertical planes due to vintage age.

Due to its vintage nature, this watch has NOT been tested for waterproof capacity ability. All original seals are aged. We assume zero responsibility for water damage. Please have a professional watchmaker pressure test the watch before submerging it.
