CASE:
Original case appears to have only been lightly polished in the past. It retains fat and even lugs, as well as original beveled edges throughout. Original fat font 'kissing 4' insert has aged to a fantastic grey color. Serial and reference are both fully visible.

DIAL:
Original Mark 1 dial is in stunning original patina'd condition. This is one of the few examples known to have two colors of text, one gold and three silver. Dial is still glossy and has light typical crazing throughout. A small patch of the dial has turned a slight matte color from age. Fantastic matching gilt handset.

NOTES:
Early 5512's in excellent original condition are seldom seen in the marketplace, let alone Mark 1 variations with two colors of text. A beautiful example of a well patina'd and early 5512!
