Condition report

The case: 

Scuffs and wear to the black japanned surface - particularly to the neck area. Tarnishing and general dirt to the gilt mounts.  Paste mounts and overall would benefit from a general clean. 

The dial: 

In relatively good order, the glass would benefit from a clean. Some very minor and small enamel chips in the areas near the screws which enable access to the movement. 

The movement: 

There is no winding key to the timepiece and the movement has not been been inspected. It should be serviced and there is no guarantee of its working order.
