There is some light patina on the dial, most noticeable from the 6 to the 8. The outside of the dial has a wavy engraved texture. The paint for the curved Hamilton logo is in excellent condition. The hands appear to be original and are in good condition with patina. The watch comes ready to wear on an unworn genuine leather croc print brown strap with gold tone buckle. The high domed acrylic crystal is polished clean and clear of major defects.
