Condition: mov't is clean, properly signed and in running condition. Dial is ST issue from about 1942 also, still crisp. Weight is proper. The case is made of oak veneered ply-wood, much like the originals, but there are nails, extra glue blocks, mis-aligned Philips screws, and masonite sheet on rear that betray its origin. Now despite all of this, it runs briskly and has a great golden oak finish, and as you can see is very photogenic. Height 34 inches
