Condition: overall very good condition. There are some minor wear spots on the globe, and a couple of spare holes where the time pointers were moved a bit. Whoever owned the clock first had an arrow installed at Paris and another near Tahiti...did he have a winter home in the South Pacific.? The well made bell strike movement has anchor escapement and is signed with Serin "Marque Fabrique" in a medallion on the rear plate. A contrate wheel off the time train transfers power to the globe which turns once per day. Height 20 inches [51cm]
