Note the entire top and bottom trims are missing, and finish has been stripped off. See lot No.325 in this sale, for what the case should look like. Interestingly the main portion of the case is in cherry, an uncommon wood for this model. If you attend the sale, you might take measurements off of lot 325 and make the missing trim on your own. Seconds hand is also lacking; main hands are original; glass old. Also for an unknown reason, someone switched the door hinges so the door opens from the right rather than the left-this can be put back easily as nothing has been filled or replaced. Measurement shown is for what part of the case is there. If all original, it would have brought 2000 dollars. Height 26 inches
