Strap:
Fitted on its original blue rubber strap with a stainless steel pin buckle. The strap is in overall good condition, except for a few nicks on both ends of the strap close to the watch head. The nicks were caused by storing the watch on a winder that was too small for this timepiece. The damage is not very noticeable & does not affect the integrity or structure of the strap in an way. A brand new strap can be ordered for $450.
Movement:
Powered by an Audemars Piguet caliber 3126/3840 which beats at 21'600 vph (3 Hz), contains 59 jewels & has a power reserve of +/- 60 hours.
Condition:
The watch is in near perfect condition, except for the strap as noted above. The case bears no noticeable scratches, except for a few hairline scratches visible only with a loop. The black ceramic bezel has no nicks or cracks. We found absolutely no reason to have the watch polished or even buffed. The watch comes in its original box with all papers.
