Condition report:
The case: requires some light tidying / repair in areas with the typical minor scuffs and scratches, including vertical shrinkage split to the plinth base. In relatively unrestored condition.
The dial: later applied silvered metal cartouche above the 6 hour. This conceals the calendar dial. The dial and movememt could be later. General wear commensurate with age and use.
The movement: pendulum present but no weights. There is no guarantee of the working order of the clock and it is advised that is serviced by a qualified / specialist clock restorer.
