This is an odd configuration that we have not seen before (and needs some attention to the alarm). Best part is the original globe which has the time track in the center (Roman numerals), and then the alarm track low on the globe in Arabic numerals. The alarm set hand is now stuck (just dried grease) to the main drive, and the winder for the alarm is missing. Bell is present inside case. This is a tiny 30 hour pendulum driven movement, and the time train runs fine. Height 6"
