It's always a mystery why folks get frustrated with unusual clocks and toss part of the pieces away, but that's what happened here. The lower bracket, dial, motion works and shaft, as well as the top bevel gear are all missing. Holes in the back of the case remain where the bracket was. I see two options here: remake the dial mask and turn it into a regular No. 6, or find a friend in Texas (where most of these seem to be) to copy the parts you need for second dial. The oak case itself is crisp and beautiful; dial with minor wear. If original this would have been worth $5000. Height 49 inches
