Condition

The movement is running, however it may require service soon. The dial appears clean with a small spot between 9 and 10 o'clock. The case back and bracelet show some scuffs. The gold has aged to a nice warm patina. The diamonds are approximately F-G in color and VVS-VS in clarity. It should be noted that the inside of the case back is stamped 3319, which corresponds to a different reference number than the design of this watch. The design of this watch is that of Ref 3367 and the Extract confirms that it is indeed Ref. 3367.
