Funny thing. I bought this from a dealer who got it as a non-runner. Seems there was a jewel cracked on the dial side that prevented from running. The only defect in the case is on the 7 oclock lug. I am assuming the original owner hit it and cracked the jewel. He got the watch as a gift as per the engraving on the caseback. I figured he brought it to a watchmaker who upon opening it did not see anything wrong and said " It will cost X for me to figure out what the problem is...." I guess the owner did not want to deal with it and put it in a draw for the next 50 years !
Good Hunting
