The enamel base has been sprayed with flat black paint. The figure and clock case have been sprayed with gold spray paint. The figure is missing the tips of two fingers, the handle of the short sword, and one wing of the griffin on top of the helmet. The white enamel dial is very good, as are the hands. Hanging piece on the right side of the case will need to be reconnected. Correct pendulum, though the rating nut is not right. The movement is signed.
