Original cream paint, black paint on the lettering has worn, some black still on the border and most still on the cap. The metal dial is still in very nice condition, it says, "no hangover". 30 hour, time only, balance wheel movement is running. Convex glass over the dial. This "Mr. Boston" is as clean and original as we have seen. Ly-Gilbert, page 44.
