Condition: The movement has been cleaned and restrung; porcelain dial is very good. Weights are from an 8-day OG, and more than adequate. You will need to make a bracket or shelf to hang the clock. Also the dial mask has been brushed with gold paint that you might want to remove so it matches the pendulum. Like most Morbiers, this has a prayer repeating strike, that sounds the strike a second time at 2 minutes after the hour. Height 54 inches
