Case: The excellent thick case shows light wear from use and features wide prominent bevels. The fat font bezel has is also excellent and shows very light wear. The red portion of the bezel has faded to a light satin coral hue and the blue portion has darkened and is now a deep satin navy blue hue. The once silver indexes have warmed and now appear as a light copper hue.
Dial: The satin black Mark 1 Long E dial is excellent and shows little if any wear. The lume has turned to a clean vibrant creamy hue and the minute and hour hand have aged slightly lighter than the dial. The GMT hand appears to be original and has aged a little lighter than the rest of the lume.
Bracelet: The 11 folded link Oyster bracelet is excellent and sows light wear for its age. The clasp is stamped with a 1970 date code.
Accessories: None.
Notes: The vibrant lume balances out the subtle and muted colors of the bezel beautifully.
