More Information

The case is later (20th century), small visible veneer split to the front right corner, the veneer on the top is slightly bubbling with small splits, otherwise in reasonable condition with typical light marks and surface rubbing; the movement is not securely fitted in the case, its wind and ticks when briefly tested, the strike is working but off-line so requires adjustment, the calendar work advances - See images and personal viewing is recommended if possible
