| Case Details | Case is in beautiful condition. It’s not a heavy case but more gentlemanly like but is still Key Wind - Key Set. The crystal fell out when I tried cleaning it with a microfiber cloth. I will glue it in. Case is mirror finished, remarkable for its age. This watch is a nice addition to my collection. Looks like silver. |
