Mahogany case in an old finish has some cracks and repairs to the head. Hull style glasses look to be modern replacements. Gilded door frames have mellowed to a dull finish. Period dial has added tabs to mount the dial to the case. Dial paint looks to be original with possible strengthening of the numerals. The signature on the dial is probably spurious. Weight brass movement looks to be Attleboro type, circa 1870. Period hands. Pendulum is missing.
