The black slate case has some of the typical foggy white spots and a handful of small chips on the edges and corners. There is one more substantial loss on the right top side. The beveled glass is fine. The porcelain dial has many hairline cracks on the right side. The hands have some oxidation. The unsigned square movement ticks but was not tested long term. This clock is heavy and fragile if shipping is a consideration.
