• Due to non-functional status, this item is best suited for experienced hobbyists or professional restoration projects seeking authentic Swiss components.
• Origin and craftsmanship reflect Rado’s Swiss heritage, adding value for collectors who appreciate lineage and compatibility with other Emile references.
