GRO, good function, dial nearly perfect save for chip at winding, original hands but minute broken at tip; gold case has had pendant shortened, originally had basse-taille enamel, has instead had later re-enameled plaque presumably glued on, with glued on split pearls that were never there originally; the inside of the case shows little distress which may mean that the additions can be removed and there might still be a good engine turned surface to re-enamel in translucent soft enamel for better restoration quality
