red marble section that makes up the top of the case is cracked and re-glued with a frontal chip at the repaired area. The marble base has some roughness on the edges. Beveled glass panels are perfect. Original porcelain dial has a fine hairline at about 6 o'clock; otherwise perfect. Hands are original. Movement is signed with the same name as on the dial. Pendulum probably had some type of decorative insert that is now missing. Ht 14.5"
