Description

overall very good original condition. The large and well made 3-train movement is signed W+H at the bottom of the rear plate. Retains original pendulum and all panes of beveled glass are fine. Note there is also a glass in the top for easy movement view, in the English style for a mantel regulator. When you see the height you will realize how much the factory has squeezed into this small package. Also note subsidiary dials for F/S and Chime/Silent. Ht 10"
