Condition Report

The clock has been wound and it is now running strongly, this is no guarantee of accuracy or reliability.

The dial is clean and legible and the "Cube" hands are intact

The nickel finish shows some surface corrosion which has made it matt and dull but it could be polished.

The candelabra are in good structural order but they show the same signs of surface corrosion that was mentioned for the clock

UPDATE:

I wound the clock fully and it was ticking strongly and seemed to keep reasonable time, However, I left it overnight and sadly it stopped after several hours but not its expected 30hrs
