The case has been reglued and some shell replaced; some of the brass is still loose. Retains attractive multi piece dial with original bright gilding. This style was most popular in the 1650-1700 era, and has been reproduced periodically ever since. It is uncommon to find these wall models. This one with a Japy bell strike movement, clean and running. Height 19 inches
