Stainless steel watch case with screwdown caseback, serial: 59526

Overall, the watch is in very good condition. 2nd execution dial and second execution steel dauphine hands show original radium, that has patinated to a deep orange color, responding to the geiger counter. The subdials show a minimal and homogenous fume patina but remain free from spotting or dirt. The watch case appears to be absolutely unpolished, with beautiful long beveled, sharp lugs. The watch was recently serviced, runs with a very high amplitude, keeping very accurate time. (275°; +2s/d). The watch comes from the first owner in Germany. An amazing timepiece, full of character.
