refinished mahogany case in nice condition. The dial door has two age cracks. Dial has been repainted with the Howard and Davis signature, but this timepiece does not seem to have the characteristics of a Howard and Davis as the movement is not marked, the pendulum keystone is different and the pendulum bob is different. The tablets look to have been restored in place. The hands are period and it has an old period weight. Ht 32"
