Catalog Description:

C.1913, William L. Gilbert Clock Co., "Observatory", 8-day wall timepiece. This oak example has been stripped, and has a dark stain.

The calendar hand has been repaired, but the other two hands are original. The pendulum and bob are replacements (and not keeping time, you will need to get a new leader and suspension spring) There is a fair label on the back of the case (about 90%, but dirty and with tears). Height 36" $250-$350
