We took a hard look at this because it looks so good; the finish is original with darkness in all the corners, even original finials; the dials have been professionally re-blacked over original finish, and over-coated (except for the seconds bit, which is all old & worn). Fashion tablet is original with only minor imperfections. Original Seth Thomas movement is clean and running, and with good interior black & gilt label. Pendulum assembly is original and tablet is excellent; original rollers are somewhat darkened with age. Overall a very nice example of this model, and certain to be welcomed by any collector. For reference, se Tran Duy Ly's book titled CALENDAR CLOCKS, (1993), pages 286-87. Height 32 inches
