Smaller than any of the Italian models in the catalogs, at 14 inches high I have only seen one other this size and it is in a collection and probably won't be sold anytime soon Looks just like the Italian No 1 and No 2, but in the small size is 30 hour only Strikes on a coil gong, on the hours Excellent gold and black glass, full label, original dial (numerals highlighted),and is running The case has never been cleaned The veneer is good down to the lower part of the base, some chipping there Ly-Welch, page 169
