Excellent!   It looks to be in very good shape, with the lume still intact, and the case in good condition, too.

It is, needs new Glass and the movement is dirty, runs then stops so it's off for a service.

Based on available ads and date of this watch, I believe this one should be tagged a Radio City. Ad in Db from 1942 calls it Radio City and in 1943 it became the Blackout.
