23 October 2024
The architectural oak case is in excellent condition. Has a traditional English style dial with cast floral spandrels, a matte center, and a silvered chapter ring. The beveled glass is perfect and the hands are original. The movement strikes the quarters on 2 gongs (bim-bam report), and then the hours on a single gong. The movement is stamped W&H, Sch; one strike hammer is replaced. The case retains its original finish, with minor losses commensurate with the age of the clock. On this model, the oak was incised on a mill to resemble a brick building. Overall good+ condition, complete and sound. Height 12.5 inches
