Antique clocks are not new clocks! A centenary clock may not be perfect, don't expect it to look like new. Please review carefully the photographs that are part of the description and which best represents the condition of the item. Color may vary slightly depending on screen settings and minor surface scratches.
Note: The clock is in excellent running order. However, since it is an antique, it is being sold with no warranty or guarantee of accuracy. The clock is not being sold as a time-measuring device, but as a unique antique artifact of unrivaled beauty.

Transportation is a lot of stress for the clock.
All antique clocks after transport, no matter how well they have been inspected or maintained, may need to be individually tweaked, tweaked, and tuned in time when you receive them. Better to have an experienced clockmaker do it for you.

Disclaimer:
Antique mechanical clocks may present a risk of mechanical damage from springs or other parts. Do not disassemble the clock movements yourself, as this may cause harm to you.
