The dials and finish are original, as are time hands, pendulum and instruction label. Finials are proper replacements. Calendar hand has been made up (soldered) from a couple of spare hands, and then painted gold. Painted "Fashion" tablet is original. Time and strike movement is clean and running. Note this was a last ditch effort to produce a low cost shelf calendar, and the lower mechanism indicates only the date, and must be corrected at the end of short months. Overall an above average example of the No. 9. Height 32 inches
