brass case has some remnants of nickel plating around the bezel, but it is mostly worn away. Silvered dial is in decent shape with a couple of fine scratches and a bit of tarnish darkening the surface. Original hands have been bent in the past and have some rust. Glass is absent. Seconds hand and rating arbor pointer is missing. The center arbor is broken where the motion works mount to it above the front movement plate. Movement ticks.
