The patina dial on this watch is very unique and importantly very even in creating a unique and attractive dial. 4. Fully linked. The bad: 1. Watch only, no box and papers. 2. Bracelet has some stretch from wear. 3. Appears not polished but showing its many years of wear. It isn't bad but it is very far from perfect.
