Wood bezel has had a repair at the hinge and is damaged in places on the bottom edge. Original dial has been repainted. The extensions on the throat panel will need attention as pieces are broken off. Period hands. The movement is attached to the case with a screw through the back plate. The carved leaf finial has some damage on the right side and is a modern replacement. This timepiece may have originally had a simpler turned finial.
