The dial is signed Camisier a Perigeux, and with original pierced brass hands. You will need a bracket or shelf to mount the movement on for wall use, unless you happed to have a floor case. Like most Morbiers, it strikes the hours and then repeats the hours at 2 minutes past. It uses a clapper in the same large bell as an alarm. Has anchor escapement. Movement runs and alarms, but would benefit from service. Height 53 inches
