The case looks to have had a light polish in the past as well as the bracelet but there is still some of the original chamfers left on the lugs and the crown guards are nice and thick still.
There are some light marks on the polished edges of the case and I have tried to show this in the pictures
The bracelet as mentioned above has had a polish at some point but the crown on the clasp is still very prominent. It is nice and tight still with the correct 78360 bracelet and 580 end links. The clasp is marked H which ties in with the serial number.
The bezel insert is what came with the watch and is pretty much unmarked to the naked eye and has only a light fading- I much prefer strong colours on GMT’s over faded inserts.
The dial has a light patina which is to be expected given the age but there are no marks on it at all, the hands match the dial perfectly and I have no reason to think they are not original to the watch.

I had the watch serviced about five years ago and it gets worn in rotation and been looked after. I have not tested the time keeping accuracy however it keeps good time and no reason to think it needs a service.

Overall it is a really nice, honest watch that I have enjoyed having.
If you have any questions or need more pictures please do not hesitate to ask.
I am looking for 12k euros plus shipping OBO . The watch is located in France.

Many thanks

Carl Hewson
