Description

gilt case in very nice condition with a loss to finish on high spots and some spots of tarnish on the top panel. Silvered dial has engine turned center, and some discoloration. Original hands have surface rust. Original grid-iron pendulum has some rust on the steel work and a couple of dings just below the rating nut. Overall very good original condition, and the well made mov't will clean up nicely. Ht 21"
