Condition: the case was refinished maybe 50 years ago and with nice coloration; spires are perfect. Has a very good original dial with a few paint chips. The Hour hand is correct, but minute hand is an improper replacement. The door glass has an original Gothic design milk transfer [do not clean as these are fragile and household cleaners can ruin them]. The outer pivots of the fusees have been re-bushed by adding material to the original stamping. Ht 19.5" [50cm]
