The movement has been mounted in screwed gold chatons – from the gold escape wheel to the minute wheel – and is of superior quality as well as in excellent condition. The smooth gold case with its sharp edges and the three-part dial are equally flawless; this is one of the first-class lever chronometers Glashuette was so famous for.
