The dial is laid out in regulator format, with the minutes in the center, hours at 6 and seconds below 12. This clock has some good provenance, as it had been purchased by Joe Meraux in the mid 1970s and was later sold by Sotheby's on June 28, 1993, as lot 150. With 2-jar mercury pendulum, the bell strike movement with brocot escapement, numbered on the movement and bezel, #22966. The signed Koblin, long running movement has been cleaned and is in good order. There are some hairlines on the dial and scattered chips and losses to the case. Height 18.5 inches
