The rosewood veneered and ripple case is in excellent condition. The dial has been professionally restored by the Dial House from which there is a label on the back of the dial. The movement is properly signed. Both glasses and the hands are original. The label is very clean. Left finial looks as if it was split and glued once (can only see if you get close) Retains original tablet with Indian and scythe and motto: "Time Cuts Down All Both Great and Small" A very crisp example. Height 16.25 inches
