Description
The original spun aluminum dial is in good condition (only fine scratches visible on close inspection). Hands, pendulum and hardware appear original. There is a synchronous electric motor (apparently with universal voltage input-please verify) to wind the weight which run on a continuous Huygens style chain with a smaller tension weight. There are a pair of mercury switches to activate the winding and to send impulses to slave clocks. An oak cover lifts off completely for servicing. There is no key for the lower lock, so the portion of the lock on the case back has been disconnected-once you get a key and unlock it, you can then reattach the hasp to the back of the case. Height 33.5 inches
