Description

Condition: the case has been nicely refinished. The dial surface is original, someone has added the name "Chandler". The bezel was turned 90 degrees after the hinge pulled out [an OK repair]. The well made movement has maintaining power and as a tribute to its quality, Leonard had it running on a later 4 pound weight. Ht includes finial 54.5"
