Condition report:
The watch shows moderate surface scratching and wear to the stainless steel case and bracelet consistent with age and use (photo 5). There is visible yellow-brown discolouration and staining to the dial, most prominent between the 3 and 6 o\'clock positions (photo 6). The crystal displays light surface scratches. The original presentation case shows some minor scuffing to the exterior and light staining to the interior silk lining (photo 4). The accompanying paperwork shows signs of age-related yellowing and creasing (photo 9). The movement is untested and likely requires a new battery.
