The case visible in the photo is rectangular with softened angles, with a silver-colored metallic finish. The dial displays a matte silver hue, punctuated by raised gilded Arabic numerals, as well as gilded hands visible in the center. The inscription \"REMOVA\" is clearly legible below the 12 o'clock marker, while \"15 RUBIS\" appears above the 6 o'clock marker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe dial shows multiple signs of wear, scratches, and oxidation marks, characteristic of an old watch that has been used. The applied numerals are clearly visible and retain a beautiful golden shine despite their age. The notched crown, located on the right, appears original and remains firmly in place. The case shows an opening or missing part at the bottom of the dial, likely related to its used condition or an attempted repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe crystal covering the dial appears original, with scratches and a patinated look that reinforces the vintage character of the piece. The watch does not include a strap on the visible side, which corresponds to the \"for parts\" mention and indicates that it is a model intended for repair or component recovery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe overall style is in line with the tradition of mid-20th-century European-made mechanical wristwatches, with a simple, legible, and functional display. The contrast between the gold of the numerals\/hands and the silver background of the dial provides discreet elegance. No additional decoration or complication is visible on this side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis mechanical hand-wound Remova watch, equipped with a 15-jewel movement, is ideal for restoration needs, spare parts recovery, or horological study.
