The only thing that keeps this from being excellent is an old replaced minute hand that looks OK, but is not the proper shape; it is more than adequate to do the job. The well made movement bears the special beehive trademark with "A-M" flanking the beehive. The serial number is 12702, and this company's production stopped around 18,000 in 1912. The porcelain dial is excellent and all the beveled glass is good. Despite needing some service, it is running and striking. Height 6.8 inches
