The lid of the original box gives operating instructions in English and French: "Set the hand at the number of hours after which you wish to be awoke. Ex: It is ten o'clock and you wish to be awakened at a quarter past six; move the hand to a quarter past 8. Wind up the spring and place the box on a table, giving at the same time an impulsion to the pendulum." There is a 12 hour pivoted pendulum movement within the brass canister, with a reserve to ring the alarm and awaken you. Alarms fine, but time movement is dirty and stops after a few ticks; mechanically sound, only needs cleaning. Neat. Dia 2.5Ó $60-$90
