Overall, the watch is in excellent condition. The original and untouched dial is in excellent condition, showing a beautiful, homogeneous patina. Really appealing! Dial and hands retain original radium lume, absolutely even under UV light and responding to the Geiger counter correctly. The watch case is in very good condition, sharp and unpolished. The watch was just serviced by our watchmaker, thus is in very good running condition, keeping accurate time. (270°; +4s/d). The watch comes from the family of the first owner near Athens, Greece. A one of a kind, very rare and important Rolex time only.
