Condition: the case has been refinished, and with new glass. Movement, No. 189, is clean and ticking, has a sturdy Brocot escapement; the porcelain dial is very good. Note you have to take the dial off the hang the pendulum on this clock, a bit inconvenient, but surmountable. The Mounting bracket is on the case back slightly crooked, but we were still able to get this to tick OK. No one is sure just where Jones got these unique movements, but they are very sturdily made. Height 53 inches
