The hard rubber case has been repainted quite nicely; rubber dial is original with gilding intact, and also with open escapement. Very few of these clocks survive today and this is an above average example; when you figure the practical nature of black rubber in lieu of marble or iron, it is amazing these clocks failed to sell better. Nice nickel plated movement. Height 15.5'
