Condition: Ebonized wood case is good condition with some loss on the corner of the top edge and age splits. Porcelain dial is damaged on the bottom corner and there is a hairline crack. One of the hands is not original. Below the main movement is a small movement that is wound from the front that maybe some type of alarm. We could not figure out how it works, as there is no alarm hand in front or an extra bell or dial in back of the case to set it. Height 9.75 inches
