This was a very well made clock, but has suffered some loss of blue background, and has some loose brass trim all of which is restorable. The case has a Northwind at the bottom, sides with winged Mercury with scepters and snakes, the whole surmounted with a bronze of Cupid, the tail of his arrow broken. The cast and engraved brass dial has 12 individual cartouche with Roman numerals. The Gubelin "name" plaque is damaged. The well made striking movement is marked Switzer Sand. Lots of potential. Height 23 inches
