Case Details The case material is not marked but its nickel and copper or some mix like that. Its in good condition and has not had a new crystal put on. There is a place to monogram on the back that appears to never have been used. The front and rear covers screw on very well as they should. The bow looks original and sits very firm. I believe i swapped the crown out but the sale photo is too low resolution for me to tell, but the crown sits well, engages both ways with a good positive click so no issues there. The watch also has a rear click which i like so the opposite of wind provides a ratchet click sound, to me this means the stem is of proper length. All in all i have no issues with the watch, its a runner. One day a brand new crystal, a high polish and an engraving would be cool.
