This is a very nice example in unrestored condition. There is some flaking and paint loss on the upper dial; lower dial is excellent. There is minor lifting of the rosewood veneer on the front flat area of the case; the rest of the veneer is fine. The wooden bezels retain their original graining. (couple of small dings in bezels). Hands and glasses are original. There is a clean label inside the case and very nice B. B. Lewis label on the back of the calendar dial. With original time movement of Welch manufacture in sound condition; the only minor negative is the 2 old round iron weights, which are not for the clock, but fit and work OK. Height 31"
