Condition
This is a 62MAS with small crown. The dial is in excellent condition. The dial and hands have NOT been relumed. The crystal shows some cracking in the middle. There is also a slight crack at 5 o’clock. The caseback markings are worn, typical of the 62mas. The serial number is still legible. The case has some nicks and dings, please see pics.
The bezel and bezel insert are original. The bezel turns smoothly as it should. The watch comes on a NOS tropic strap with new springbars. The watch keeps excellent time. I have serviced the watch and replaced some bad parts, namely:
