both cases have been refinished and fitted with the higher-quality Vermont movements. One movement ticks briskly but has no gong or gong hammer; the other movement has a failed time click. Beveled glasses are fine; one rear door is later painted wood. One white enamel dial is signed but has hairlines; the other is unsigned but whiter and thinner, perhaps not original. One had a replaced hour hand. Ht 16.5 in
