Catalog Description:

French crystal regulator in an unusual case style with accessories we don't usually find in a crystal regulator, thermometer and barometer. The case is 10 1/2 inches wide, 8 inches high. The movement is 8 day, striking half hours on a cathedral gong, very good 3 1/2 inch porcelain dial signed, "France". Live mercury, 2 jar pendulum. The Fahrenheit thermometer on the left, is a curved mercury vial, on the 2 inch dial, working. The Aneroid Barometer on the right, also a 2 inch dial, seems to be working. None of the 3 dials were ever covered. The Barometer-Thermometer dials need to be polished, now tarnished. The movement is signed, "A.1", "Made in France", and "Samuel Marti". The clock is running but I would still recommend service. Clock comes with an old French winding key. There are 5 large beveled glasses, and only one tiny corner chip on the back glass. Chip is about as big as a gnats eye. I shouldn't even mention it. 2 large carrying handles on the sides.
