It is collector new, purchased by a collector with a large collection who stored this watch in new condition along with a number of other watches and essentially did not wear them before his passing away. We have sold "brand new" unsold watches that showed more handling wear from authorized dealer showcases than this watch.
Mating rugged handsomeness, class, historical significance, craftsmanship and usefulness, the watch stands out as a quality time piece to even the casual of observer. With its strong black aviator's military style dial with easy to read markings, large luminous hands and highly raised hour markers, and full 12-hour chronograph and day and date features, its face possesses both a high degree of utility and vintage-inspired style.
Its aviation orientation is bolstered by its soft-iron inner case for protection against magnetic fields, sapphire glass crystal secured against displacement by drop in air pressure, and hacking seconds for exact timing coordination.
We have tested the watch, and it continues to keep very accurate time.
It still has the protective sticker covering the back. The cards have divergent serial and model numbers from the watch but we believe are original to the purchase and were with the watch when we acquired it from its original owner.
Included with the purchase is a new full one-year international warranty on the movement and its function.
