Operation has been confirmed without any issues. It has been stored unused, but the original band had deteriorated and become brittle over time. Therefore, it has been replaced with an external, elastic metal band (see image 3). The metal band is long (approximately 20mm around the wrist), so it will fit best over a sweatshirt or a thin down jacket, rather than directly on the skin, unless you have very thick wrists. There is no outer box or case, only the watch itself. The original buckle is also included.
