The original dial has some minor flaking paint areas touched up. The rosewood veneered case is very nice, but it faded from exposure to sunlight. The original faux graining on the bezel is now gone. The painted and gilt tablet is very nice. There is a very nice label inside the case, behind the weight baffle. (You really need to look behind the baffle to see it) The bottom bracket is currently fastened to the case with metal brackets on rear and would benefit from a proper restoration. For comparison, see our April 2001 auction where "sister" to this clock sold for 4350+ dollars, with same estimate. Height 43 inches
