the case has its original finish rubbed down and what appears to be a thin coat of lacquer applied. The hands, dial, label and both tablets are original. The bottom tablet has the Indian with the motto "TIME CUTS DOWN ALL BOTH GREAT AND SMALL" with two eagles and two lions. The original brass springs are still present in the recently serviced movement. This is a fine example of this model. Ht 25"
