The cast brass dial has 25 porcelain inserts, one for each hour, one for each 5 minute marker (smaller Arabic numbers outside the Roman ring), and a porcelain dial center, all intact and in excellent condition. The well made French movement strikes the hours and halves on a coiled wire gong. Height 20 1/2"
