Antique clocks are not new clocks! A centenary clock may not be perfect, don't expect it to look like new. Color may vary slightly depending on screen settings and minor surface scratches.
NOTE. Although the clock is internally complete and the movement has been serviced, I cannot guarantee that an antique clock will perform flawlessly upon delivery to you.
The clock is being sold as a unique antique artifact of unrivaled beauty as an interior decorative item.
