Condition: The rosewood case was refinished long ago and the graining on the top bezel is now absent. The dial pan and surface paint is original, but someone strengthened the numerals, re-painted the days of the week, and then brushed orange shellac over their work. So chances are you will want to consider a professional re-paint at this juncture. The inside label is legible, but has lost all of its gold lettering, you really read the oxidized surface of the paper. Calendar movement and calendar label are xlnt, calendar dial a little dark from age. Height 30 inches
