The bezel projects slightly forward from the hoop, which is chunky and smooth. The shoulders taper and there is now a break at the back of the hoop, and probably some material missing. The ring is also bent across the bezel. The metal has a smooth brown patina. Compare LEIC-048536 and WILT-A8F54B.In its current configuration the ring is 16.5mm long, 12.7mm wide and 13.5mm thick.
