| Condition Report
In really excellent if sleeply condition. We've not touched it since acquiring-it. The going-train line has snapped (hence only one weight shown) but the other weight and pully are present & original. The movement will therefore benefit from a clean and service whilst it is being re-strung. I don't anticipate many problems. It is totally original which is the most important thing. There is a 4cm long piece of ebonised moulding missing from the left hand side rear. Easy to replace. No sign of worm damage. |
