Condition report

We do not consider that this is a marriage. The clock is complete and in good working order and despite 3 cracks to the case (all illustrated) we consider it to be in very good order for its age. There is an old repair to the pendulum which is also illustrated. The current estimate for this lot is Â£1800-2500.
