The lacquer and gilding are worn through in a few high spots, but overall this is a good looking clock. The outer dial has the name of about 2 dozen major word cities, and all you do is rotate that so your current city is at the hour hand and you instantly can see the time at all of the other cities. A 24 hour day/nite dial makes it clear whether the sun is shining where you are observing the time. The movement is a quality 8-day Swiss unit with lever escapement and 15 jewels. Width 8", Height 2.5 inches
