Condition Report
The clock case is in ok condition for age, the brass has a superb finish, i cant see any dents or dings to the brass but there are a few scratches to the case which i think you can see from the photographs and you could probably get polished out
the dial is very good showing very minimal wear and looks fantastic
this clock is a certainty for any clock collector, very rare to see a brass case bulle clock
