this repeater is worthy of some restoration. The porcelain dial is good but the retailer name above the 6 cannot be deciphered. The bezel glass is absent and the brass has a darkened lacquered finish. The minute hand is a too-short replacement. The unsigned movement strikes its hours and quarters, and the balance staff is intact but ticks only briefly. The leather case is intact and in better shape than most that we find. Case is 5" square, dial is 2.5"
