The iron case with mother-of-pearl inlay is in very nice condition with an old and crackled finish and rather nice gold work. The original lower frosted tablet is a little faded but is in otherwise nice condition. (Note: you almost never see this oval lower door) The original painted dial has some paint loss around the mounting screws and shows some wear. The hands are original. The paper label inside the case is dark & torn, but you can still make out the name Andrews. There is also a partial label on the back. The lyre movement is signed by the maker and with early steel springs. Height 15.5 inches
