in need of work. This is an attractive case with original top, however it has had a hard case of wood worm and has quite a few holesÖno dust apparent from current activity. The movement, serial number 425904, has all its wheels and runs OK, but is missing the gong support, gong, and hammer (substitutions are available from a competent clock mechanic). Rack and snail on front are fine. Dial + hands original and good; pulleys are home-made from 30 hour alarm balances, grooved for the cable. Height 52" $400-600
