This Rolex watch is in good vintage condition consistent with its age. The case is in good condition with scratches and wear, it appears to have been polished. The bezel is in good condition with wear and light nicks around the edge. The dial and hands are in good, honest condition with patina. The dial has aged darker around the edge/ hour markers than in the center of the dial. This can be hard to notice depending on the light. The lume on the dial and in the hands has developed patina and are close to matching in color. The lume in the hands has developed some slightly darker patina. The folded Oyster link bracelet is in great condition with some wear and scratches. It has a bit of stretch between the links which is common for this type of bracelet.
