This was originally a dark false grained case, and has been stripped and finished with spray lacquer. The well made 72 beat movement is a slide mount, original to the case, and has been restored, with solder on governor flies, couple of replaced screws, tail missing from minute hand, and painted chips in the chapter ring. The weights are new with modern style German hooks; no case stabilizers. The pulleys are a matched set of sharp 5 star units and exceptional. The movement was recently cleaned and is in running order. A large and impressive clock that would have brought 4000 dollars if original. Height 58 inches
