23 October 2024
The rosewood veneered case is in very good condition with original finish and the graining on the upper bezel can be seen under the finish; some crazing and absent finish on high spots. The original painted dial has a couple of paint flakes. Some of the days of the week text on the top dial have been enhanced and would benefit from a more professional hand. The original calendar dial has darkened from age, but is still pretty good. Hands are all original. Retains a good Lewis label behind the calendar and a good Welch label on the back board. With a small over-past repair label from Henry Wycke, St. Louis, MO. Height 32 inches
