under cut crystal dome in excellent original condition. The only thing that keeps this from being outstanding is a small dimple on the silvered brass dial; otherwise this is about as good a Bulle model as you will find. With a battery holder to accept a "D" cell. The oval wooden base retains its original black lacquer, and with a tag imprinted: Type no. 50178, Nr. 2. The cut crystal dome is absolutely flawless and without chip or blemish. The sister to this clock was sold at Sotheby's, New Bond Street, London on April 4, 2001, lot 234. Seems to run. Height 14"
