Condition Report

The case is in good decorative order and the porcelain dial is clean and bright with no cracks

The going and chiming train both wind freely and the clock runs for a while but soon stops, the movement chimes the hours and chimes the half-hour with a simple passing strike.

The chiming is out of sync with the indicated hour.

The lens and bezel are intact and close securely with a snap.
