This clock is 100 percent original with nice patina and a great label on the rear Good Gale calendar label inside, and both rear Welch labels are intact but not readable. 8-day time and strike. The time dial is very good, light stain by IV; the calendar dial has some discoloration, and minor wear at 1-2-3.
