Condition: Heavy cast polished brass case is in nice condition with flaws. Some of the parts are poorly made; case shows visible flaws in the top casting and the decorative side panels. Beveled glass panels are not ground with any precision. The brass movement looks like a copy from a German or French example. Porcelain dial is nice, but does have a kind of copper color flowing throughout the white porcelain. Hands are original to the movement. These sold for a few hundred dollars, our estimate is realistic. Height 5.5 inches
