Condition report:
The inlaid case with a loose class hinge, which has been previously soldered. The dial with various scuffs and scatches, together with a little repainting in areas - to the centre by the hands and a few numerals. No winding key, but pendulum present. The movement has not been examined and there is no guarantee of its working order.
The second example also with scuffs and knocks to the dial. The back with a later screw to secure the suspension loop but it has not been possible to remove the back to examine the movement. Winding key present. Again there is no guarantee of its working order.
Both clock movements will need a thorough service by a qualified clock specialist to ensure working order is satisfactory.
