The glass dial is perfect and has the signature "L. Gerente, á St. Chamond", who may have been the retailer. The hands are original. The case houses a large iron framed Morbier spring driven movement with repeat that strikes on a gong. The pendulum is a replacement, works fine. An exceptionally clean example of a repeating baker's clock. Height 15.5 inches
