Also, under the dial is signed the movement serial number #39.670. This serial number dates this watch to 1899 as per published production numbers.
This beautiful wristwatch has the ORIGINAL GLASHUTTE movement in an excellent status which was very well saved, considering age of this watch.
Vintage watches may contain replacement parts that are not from the original manufacturer if the original manufacturer no longer makes that part.
Mechanism has been recently serviced to ensure it winds and sets smoothly while keeping great, accurate time.
This is a “NAIL SET” watch so you don’t pull the crown out to set the time. Instead, you press the little button near the crown IN and then move the crown to set the hands, releasing the button once you’re finished. It’s easy, so don’t worry about getting the hang of it!
It is fitted on a new 22mm black alligator style genuine leather strap with chrome steel buckle that is vintage style and goes great with this wonderful watch.
