Condition: this movement was cleaned and then put away and has fresh cord. Needs a couple of things: click spring on strike side has gotten bent and is not pressing on the click; brass shroud on strike barrel is distorted. The little clip that should hold the crutch to the verge wire has come off. Iron weights do not match. Has no dust covers. Tick and strikes robustly. Wall stand use for foto is not included, goes with lot 43. Ht 55"
