Mahogany case in original finish. The gilded areas are now gold painted. A couple of the balls on the bottom bracket are cracked. Original painted tablets have scattered loss and some inpainting. Original painted dial has minor loss at the mounting screws. Brass movement is attached to the case with a screw through the backboard. Hands are unusual, but are original. A nice watch paper is glued onto the weight baffle. Finial is period, but rather large and may not be original and is missing its spire. The pendulum is stamped 127.
