This beautiful rosewood veneered case retains its original finish. The timepiece dial is original and shows some wear. The calendar dial has been repainted as have the original calendar hands for the lower dial. The upper dial hands are original. The day calendar hand may be a later replacement. Excellent labels. Overall, a very nice example of this model. Ht 36"
