Description
This is a rosewood grained case, probably by Hatch, now housing a signed Howard movement, dial, weight, pendulum and tiedown. The lower tablet has been repainted in the style of a Howard No. 11. The Howard dial is dirty and the signature is fading. The hands are period. Despite being a marriage, it is attractive and would look great on somebody's wall. Interestingly, this clock passed through John Delaney's hands in 1973, and is so noted on the rear of the dial and inside of the case. I am sure it was appropriately represented at the time. A real Howard 11 is worth around $3000+. Our estimate is based on the value of the parts. Height 33"
