This clock has some potential for a modest workman. The lower baffle board and tie-down are missing; weight is incorrect. The grained cherry case was rubbed out long ago and much of the graining was taken off; it looks more like mahogany now. The movement is properly signed, Howard and Davis, and the dial is superb and tablets are original (lower tablet has some gold loss). This clock had enough going for it to make it into the Sunday session. Runs OK. A pristine No.3 would bring around $4000, so our estimate reflects condition. Height 38"
