Condition Report

Condition good to fair. Light wear as per use and age, including tarnish. Dent to left hand side. Other minor nicks and dings present, though nothing of real concern. Both hands slightly misshapen. Clock appears overwound, accessing the back the mainspring starts but then stops, movement will therefor require attention. Hammers do move freely when lifted. Additonal images illustrating full clock are now available.
Enamel is generally good. No apparent damages, some very light wear when scrutinised under light, tarnish and would benefit from clean. Back of case has not been attended by solder.
