timepiece. This wall clock has problems. The lower half of the marble broke away and was replaced with a wood panel that is now hinged to the bottom of the case. The numerals have been touched up and the Howard signature is wiped away. The tablet is also missing. If you have access to someone who can do marble work and have a piece of old marble, this could be restored. Movement, weight, pend, and hands are all original; part of the external F/S adjuster is missing, but a good mechanic can restore it; also Geneva winding stop is missing. Estimate reflects the value of the parts. Height 29"
