The rosewood veneered case is in excellent original condition with original finish. The only minor veneer damage is a little roughness and small chip on the back edge of the peak; there is a very small piece missing off the tip the left finial (hard to notice). The original signed dial has some staining and paint loss around the mounting screws, but is otherwise excellent. The upper glass is original, while the frosted tablet is a replacement. The movement is signed J. C. Brown. The label is very clean. Other than the tablet, this is a great ripple. Height 20 inches
