Description
The power transmitted via a large fusee, the timekeeping governed by a steel ball rolling on a grooved table, releasing a latch at the end of its travel, allowing the train to advance while the table tilts to the opposite end and the ball re-traces its original path in the other direction. The time is indicated on three elevated dials, minutes in the center, hours to the left and seconds to the right. Not pictured are a sturdy plexi-glass cover and a polished black marble base; very high quality throughout. Height of clock 14", with cover and base 17". Reserve $3600
