24 October 2024
the larger "Colby" was retailed by Bigelow, Kennard of Boston, and retains its old lacquered finish. Its porcelain dial has no flaws. The smaller "Dorval" was gold-plated that is mostly worn to the brass, its dial has some faint cracks, and it needs better hands. All the beveled glasses are good except for a small corner chip in one back door, and the simulated mercury pendulums are fine. Hts 9" and 11"
