the mahogany veneered case retains its original finish, with some veneer loss confined to the bottom edge. The finish on the columns has flaked some. The original reverse painted tablets with 25% loss. The original painted dial is very good, with some loss at the winding holes and the mounting pins. Hands are original. Someone has added "wings" to the original fan in the strike train. Height 31.5 inches
