Condition: Case was professionally refinished some time ago; veneer is excellent, minor repairs are well done. The original dial has been repainted. We sometimes see the remote fusee in a double steeple or an Acorn style case, but this is the first steeple case we have seen with this set up. Note pendulum is mounted at the apex of the case to allow for proper half second (+/-) drop. Height 19.75 inches
