Condition: Stripped mahogany veneered case is in very good condition with an age crack and loss on the panel below the dial. There is some veneer loss on curved bottom. Cable drive fusee movement is very clean with the correct pendulum. Original convex painted dial is very nice with some loss around the mounting screws. Hands are original. Side access door is a replacement. Large and impressive and running robustly. Height 31 inches
