Overall, the watch is in excellent condition. One of the most interesting 2406 we have seen with rare orange print and base 1000 outer tachy scale. The original, black gilt, signed dial is in excellent condition. Dial and hands retain original radium lume, which has aged to a beautiful orange colour. The watch case is unpolished, very sharp, in excellent condition. The watch was just serviced by our watchmaker, thus in excellent running condition, keeping accurate time (300°; 5s/d). The chronograph is working correctly. The watch comes from a collector in Bad Kreuznach Germany.
