The refinished mahogany veneered case has some minor veneer loss on the base, lifting the bottom left panel, roughness and minor loss on the bottom door. The right and left rear corners of the top cornice have been repaired. The three glasses are replaced. The original dial is the correct one for a Salem Bridge and is in rather nice condition with a little loss in one spot to the gold chapter ring. The movement is correct for the case. The pulleys for the weights are not original. Most of the label is missing, but enough remains to determine the makers. Generally a good looking example of Spencer & Wooster work. Height 33.5 inches
