Condition: the brass grommets for the dial center are absent; one pulley is later; other 2 match fine. There is no latch for the front door. Beveled glass in door is probably later, but is very nicely done. The case with some minor nicks and scrapes. Porcelain dial has a minor hairline between 10 and 11; otherwise fine. The very well made 72 beat Viennese movement has not been serviced in many years and will need cleaning; note hour strike hammer is replaced, nicely done by a good workman. Height 57 inches
