There is a little roughness along some of the sharp edges of the base. There is a repair on the right side of the base. There are a couple of minor chips on the top edge. The two-part porcelain dial is perfect with visible escapement. The hands are original. The beveled bezel glass good with minor surface scratches that look like shadows on the dial. The bell strike movement is clean and running, with good action on the escapement. When we put the pendulum inside the case it wedged down in the base and you will need to temporarily remove the movement (2 screws) to reach the pend. Height 12 1/4"
