Condition: some bits of carved walnut case trim have been broken off over the years and been stained over, not too noticeable. The lock is missing from the drawer in the base. Base also with a door to allow it to be used as a cabinet. The well made Becker movement has 5 wheels in the train and winds to the left; it also has Harrison's ratchet maintaining power; it is about 40% larger than a normal size Becker movement, and is signed. The seconds hand is missing. Mounting bracket is screwed into the case with drywall screws, which could be changed. Height 91 inches
