Description

Condition: the imported dome is new (and with fish-eyes and blemishes). The movement is an earlier one with rectangular plates. Note the top portion of the Geneva stop is lacking, a common situation when repairman don't have the patience to set it up. This version has statues of the Oarsman and the Spear Fisher. The oar is intact, but now loose in his hand, as is the spear in the ladies hand; figures are excellent.. Paper dial has darkened some with age, but overall good condition. Generally a very good example of this model. Fro reference, see Ly's book titled Ansonia Clicks, (1998) pages 91-102, and with information of the inventor, H. J. Davies. Height 18 inches
