Like so many ViennaÕs from this nice collection, this one has been refinished, brass polished, movement cleaned and made to run as intended. Excellent 2 piece porcelain dial, machined bezel, nice original hands, all clean and polished. This Becker case has a lot of black finials, trim, edges, and grooves. Makes for a good looking wall clock. Walnut case is regular size at 45 inches tall. Head piece is very attractive but a later day replacement. It is evident the wood man knew his stuff. Very striking wood graining on the backboard, tail, and sides. These refinished ViennaÕs will provide many more years of good service. If you have been looking for one good Vienna, this one may be it.
