The stainless-steel case and gold bezel present scratches and small surface marks consistent with regular use.

The leather strap shows visible creasing, surface wear and fraying around the edges, particularly near the lugs. Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form an essential part of the condition description. Water resistance has not been tested. Contact with water should therefore be avoided unless the watch is professionally pressure-tested and resealed. Story & Heritage This Maurice Lacroix approaches the traveller’s watch with classical elegance. Its second time zone appears discreetly through a window at 12 o’clock, allowing the main dial to retain the balanced appearance of a traditional dress watch. The silver guilloché decoration is the centrepiece of the design. Fine radiating waves introduce depth and movement, contrasting with the smooth ring carrying the applied Roman numerals. The solid 18K gold bezel frames this composition with warmth, echoed by the delicate hands and golden dial details. The two apertures establish a pleasing vertical balance: a second-time-zone hour display above and the date below. This arrangement gives the watch its distinctive personality while keeping its additional functions neatly integrated into the dial. Turn the watch over and the automatic movement becomes visible through the exhibition back, complete with its signed rotor and decorative finishing. With its 38 mm proportions, precious-metal bezel and uncommon dual-time display, this Maurice Lacroix offers an attractive combination of practical complication, mechanical charm and understated luxury.
