The watch has a 17-jewel stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement has been identified as being from Electa. This is a good quality movement with a Breguet hairspring for enhanced precision, screw-set jewels and a more unusual micro regulator.
The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is gold plated and it has engine turned detail and a vacant cartouche to the screw-on case back. There is minor marking to the case but nothing too serious at all.
The glass lens is in lovely condition.
The dial is in lovely condition with blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track.
The watch comes with a single leather albert.
The watch and albert come in a new presentation box.
