23 October 2024
The painted dial is very dirty and missing some paint. It is signed Alex'r Watt, Galston. The dial itself with representations of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales in the corners, the arch with a conquerors theme, a captain with his sword demanding the surrender of well dressed foreigners. The very well made movement is dirty, but was cleaned and re-strung within the last 15 years and shows no signs of major wear; both trains are fully functional. The seconds hand is lacking; period pulleys intact; good old hands. W 14", ht 20 1/2"
