This is an eight day timepiece. It does not strike, chime or do anything other than keep track of time. It needs to be wound once a week. This timepiece came to me in very rough condition. I don’t usually refinish old items, but this one was in such rough shape that felt it was the right thing to do. I scraped off the old shellac finish and applied two coats of new hand rubbed shellac. I polished the brass bezel, dial and pendulum bob. I also replaced the paper dial. The movement has been overhauled, and the timepiece runs smoothly. If you are looking for a silent timekeeper that has some history, this one’s for you!
