Origin & Craftsmanship: This distinctive timepiece, crafted in Canada, showcases a stainless steel base with elegant gold-plated accents, blending classic materials with modern design.
Case: The case is made of durable stainless steel, maintaining good condition on the sides and back. However, the gold plating on the bezel is showing signs of wear, with the gold nearly vanished on the underside of the bracelet section that touches the wrist, though this is not visible when worn.
Bezel: Adorned with beautiful engravings and patterns, the golden bezel adds a touch of sophistication, despite some tarnishing that adds character to its vintage appeal.
Dial & Indexes: The watch features a quartz movement with two precious stones on the dial, enhancing its visual appeal. Roman numeral indexes contribute to its classic look, offering timeless elegance.
Movement: Equipped with a high-quality Longines movement, the watch operates on a battery. While the movement itself appears to be in good condition, it is advised to consider a service check, as detailed cleaning and potential restoration may be needed.
Bracelet: The bracelet, rated around 4 to 5 out of 10, shows signs of wear with some links starting to fatigue, visible in the photos. Nonetheless, it remains functional, and the clasp is in good condition.
Crown: The crown of the watch is in good condition, allowing for easy time adjustments without concern.
Legacy & Value: This watch is sold as seen. It boasts a unique style that is sure to impress friends and admirers alike. Please review the photos closely to assess the condition and understand the potential need for repairs, as the watch is being sold in an honest, "as-is" condition.
Additional Note: Due to the condition of the bracelet and the potential need for movement servicing, this watch represents a chance to own a piece of horological art with a touch of personal restoration.
