This Santos Galbee Was Originally Introduced Into The Market In 1987 As An Update To The Classic Santos Caree. This Reference Saw More Refined Ergonomics That Made The Timepiece Hugely Successful For Both Casual And Everyday Wear. Originally Classified As A Men's Watch, This Reference - Measuring 29mm - Has Since Been Deemed As A Unisex Model. It Is Truly A Gem Of High Horology.
This Particular Timepiece Is In Overall Exceptional Untouched Condition. The Case, Bracelet, Clasp, And Caseback Do Show Signs Of Wear Through Minor Scratches, But Nothing Major That Takes Away From It's Beauty. To Our Knowledge, The Timepiece Has Not Been Polished, And Whatever Wear Is Present Is As A Result Of Wear Throughout The Decades. The Dial Shows No Signs Of Cracking Or Heavy Patina, And The Crystal Is Without Cracks. We Cannot Stress The Value Of This Piece Enough As It Has Been Completely Untouched, And Can Be Restored To Like New Condition Easily Without Effecting The Metal Should It Be Desired.
