now in a C.1925 Chelsea style banjo case with original Hull tablets (throat cracked and glued). Note the "feet" on the movement have been straightened in a vise so it would fit in this case; pendulum stick and keystone go with the movement. The last thing that was done to accommodate the marriage was to cut off the tip of the center shaft about 1/8" so the bezel would close. It does still tick, but we would suggest you are buying parts that could be put to better use on other clocks; height 35" $350-450
