Condition: The top ball has received some bumps, and there are dents in the quadrant from 9 to 12. Otherwise this is a good original swing clock with nicely finished statue of Autumn Breeze signed Moreau and original arm, with serial number imprinted 11536 on both arm and movement. Mov't signed Paris with "OOIE" trademark. Runs fine, one suspension spring a little bent, may need correction to bring it into beat. Knurled safety nut for suspension rod is missing, easy to make. Overall a good+ example of this model with original finish. Height 29 inches
