Condition: Nicely made brass movement with deadbeat escapement and Harrison maintaining power. The pawl to the maintaining power is missing, but is easily made. The steelwork has some surface rust that will need attention. The movement runs at least 8-days and possibly longer as the weight is doubly compounded (double pulley intact). The silvered brass dial is tarnished. Hands are original. Movement is mounted to its original seatboard with a decorative mahogany front-piece. There is no weight nor meter pendulum. Height 11.5 inches
