Condition Report
The movement is wound solid but the movement will escape with some encouragement, but soon stops, the chiming button seems to have been pushed right in and no longer trips the repeat mechanism but the watch has been chiming, but now does not, and the stopwatch does not appear to activate when the button is pressed,
The adjusting levers advance the corresponding functions.
The case does not open via the crown button probably due to some corrosion in the catch.
The case and loop suspension are of good gauge and only slight softening to the engine turning, the watch case does show a shallow dent around the hinges
