This is an attractive Austrian 2nd Baroque walnut wall case that got separated from its movement. Someone had the original dial and married it to a German, G. Becker movement that originally had a square dial (all this is obvious from the rear). Then to handle the placement of the winding holes, they soldered an engraved dial center to the front of the original dial. The well made Becker movement is in running order and strikes loudly on a new gong. Would be $1200 if correct. Height 36"
