The refinished mahogany case is in excellent condition with an original dial, hands and glasses. The original tablet has had some touch up with white paint, & could use some professional help; "Time takes down all, great and small". The dial has normal paint loss around the mounting screws; overall a great dial with only a little wear on the signature. . The movement is signed by the maker. The ripple pattern is especially complex and nice. Height 19 inches
