The French movement is by Vincenti et Cie and has the maker's Medaille D' Argent mark on the movement backplate. It is of high quality and is in excellent clean and running condition having been fully overhauled by our clockmaker. Pendulum is original. It runs for 8 days and strikes the hours and halves on a bell. Click the video clip below to hear the bell and watch the clock running!
Condition of the case is excellent with a bright and clean finish, some slight wear and very minor tarnish / discolouration in places. Dial is also in excellent condition with just a slight nibble to the left hand winding hole. There are some small and light scratches on the original glass. This is a stunning clock ready to grace your home, lots of pictures below.

About us - All of our clocks are original antiques, we source most of our clocks in France, Belgium, the Netherlands and the UK. We prefer to buy our clocks in original 'dirty' condition. We then clean the cases using a technique we have developed over many years. We employ two qualified clockmakers who overhaul the movements. Movements are thoroughly tested until we are satisfied that they will run trouble free.
