Exceptional mahogany veneered case with very minor chips and original finish. Interesting painted tablet is original with minor flaking. Superb original painted zinc dial with typical chips around keyholes and firm name stamped on it. Original hands. Movement is die stamped with firm's name. Very good label is slightly faded, but has engraving of original 1833 Forestville Mfg. Co. factory which was destroyed by fire in 1853. An OG to be proud of. Height 26 inches
