CONDITION REPORT

With its pendulum but no key.  In good overall condition.  Some carcass cracks to veneer on topside of case, as consistent with age.  The brass carrying handles are Georgian and later applied.  Probably originally fixed to a shop unit?  Designed to be wound from the back.  The feet probably later.  The winding aperture in the dial later and the front winding square later.
