This model has various names; it was renamed the "Commodore" in 1917 and later renamed the "Constitution". This example has the special dial with raised numerals and original pierced hands (in nickel finish). The dial is in very nice condition with some wear to the lacquer on the outer chapter ring. This is a nice low serial number clock, the movement number 24082 and is in working condition. The clock was marketed by Riggs & Bro., Philadelphia, and is so signed on the dial. The little mahogany dust cover that would have been under the clock base when it left the factory is absent. Height 9 inches
