Description
The case was original rosewood grained, and has been refinished, some of the graining remains, but most is absent. The movement bears Becker trademark and serial No.139,008; note the country of manufacture has been carefully obliterated on either side of the trademark on the back plate (does not affect the operation of the movement, and was done neatly at a factory). The porcelain dial is excellent; note tip of minute hand is missing and hand has an additional repair as well. Retains original 4-spoke pulleys, pendulum and weights (minor dings in weights commensurate with age). Movement is clean and running. Note tip of minute shaft was damaged and hand is now held on with threaded nut. Height 47 inches
