Reports

Case : The case is relatively strong, exhibiting some softening around the chamfers and the case back. The entire case shows evidence of polishing but remains in fair condition. The case sides display numerous scratches, consistent with a watch nearly 60 years old. The bezel is still relatively sharp.

Dial : The champagne pie-pan stick dial is in great condition; there are a few minor blemishes scattered throughout. The baton markers are all sharp and have very few blemishes. The tritium markers are all intact but show some discoloration, and have remained even throughout. The crystal has a few micro abrasions but has no chips, dents, or unattractive wear.

Bracelet/Strap: Although we have seen crisper examples of the 73 rivet bracelet, this still has acceptable sag for its age and use. There are a few dents and dings, and it has undoubtedly been polished in the past, but it still retains a good amount of sharpness. The polished surfaces show some swirling and superficial scratches, while the brushed portions have only a handful of nicks and scuffs.
