DIAL & HANDS
The exceptional early sector dial has achieved a stunning tropical patina consisting of even tans and browns throughout. The dial is in very well-preserved condition, however, there is a small mark in the "Certified" text above the 6 o'clock. The lume plots all remain intact and show a handsome sandy coloration, under U.V. light inspection some of the lume plots exhibit some light degradation. The original hands match the dial perfectly and display no degradation when inspected under U.V. light.
ACCESSORIES
None. The watch was recently serviced and is keeping time perfectly, backed by a 1-year warranty on accurate timekeeping.
