Lot Essay

The present watch has aged nicely with its charismatic dial that has taken uneven shades of brown and the bakelite bezel that has seen the blue and red colour fading over years. Overall, the result is quite appealing and homogenous which leads to the conclusion that the watch as a whole has aged in the same condition.
