WATCH IS RUNNING AND KEEPING TIME – RECENTLY SERVICED. DIAL / HANDS- DIAL HAS A COUPLE SUBTLE HAIRLINES. CASE- EXCELLENT, NO WEAR OR DAMAGE, ALMOST MINT. CROWN / BOW- EXCELLENT. Look at the photos closely as I consider them the most important part of the description. What you see is what you will get. Old pocket watches and wrist watches are delicate and inherently more prone to mechanical issues. Due to their age and intricate construction, these timepieces can stop working at any time, even after careful testing and description. We recommend considering this factor when purchasing, as these watches may require servicing or repairs to ensure continued functionality. If recently serviced I will state so. If running properly, while in my possession, I will say so. If not running properly, I will also say so. If not running at all, I will say so. There are certainly times when a watch is running while in my possession, and then once received, there may be an issue. Temperature and Humidity Changes : Variations in temperature and humidity can affect the lubricants and materials inside the watch, potentially causing rust, corrosion, or the degradation of delicate parts. Please see my feedback, this typically is not an issue. Thank you for supporting my shop! I appreciate your understanding and continued support.
