Description
Many of you will recognize the Maxant name as the Paris clockmaker who patented several inventions for winding, one was for a pull out crank in the center of the minute hand, and the other, like this, has two separate pull out winding bars that are hidden behind the bezel. One great advantage of this system is that you never lose the winding key. The secondary advantage is that the dial never suffers blemishes from the insertion of a hand held key. This is an extremely heavy case, with good detail. The movement is in good order. Height 21 inches
