The oak case has been rubbed down and has a few old dings and scratches. There are four numbers impressed into the roof on the right side, probably a consequence of someone using it as a writing surface. The roof also has a split that is four inches long on the right back edge. The dial is in very good condition. Red cloth inside side doors is a modern replacement Heavy brass movement is stamped with the W&H trademark. The movement ticks, strikes, and chimes, but was not tested long term.
