These timepieces were made to compete with the American versions. This example even has an American eagle on the label, and looks similar to the octagon top model produced by Seth Thomas. The case has some roughness and veneer chips on the base, but is overall good+. The door molding surrounding the dial and the tablet has been painted white. The original dial has some paint loss and wear. Both glasses are original. The bell for the alarm has been replaced. Height 10 inches
