Condition: case in good condition with a small chip on the bottom door; other dry splits, and the top and bottom carvings are replaced (ok but not stellar work). Whatever rosewood graining was on the bezels was lost during the refinishing process. Bottom dial has a couple of very small rough spots. Dust cover to the calendar movement is missing. Looks like someone a long time ago put a varnish finish on the upper dial that has now darkened from age. Hands are original. Label inside case is dark, but readable. A very uncommon clock. Ht 31" [78.7 cm]
