Condition: the well made movement is signed with Lenz logo and clock was hanging and running when we picked it up. However there are several case flaws that require major attention to bring it in line with the 1870 illustration in Blackwell's book on "Vienna Regulators of Lenzkirch and Lorenz Bob". Both right and left top returns are missing, top center keystone is supposed to be a carving, lower left door gesso is missing, one door "nubbin" lacking and bottom finial incorrect. Mov't , hands, pulleys, weights and pendulum are original to the case. Ht. 48"
