23 October 2024
30-hour wood works, chamfer side with cornice in very good original condition. This model with alarm train between the plates (3rd weight visible in detail foto). Note interesting dust cover for top which looks to be an owner-installed device, about the same age as the clock, and with a "scab" at some point to allow for a larger bell. Generally full label is dark but fully legible; good dial; interesting instructions inside. Height 30 inches $550-650
