AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
No reserve price
Museum collection (Carefully reading the ad clarifies the details).
Beautiful 'COMTOISE' clock, skeleton design, with zone activation. Brass/iron.
Watch from around 1890, with typical signs of aging.
Original carved hands.
Percussions with a hammer on a bubble, half an hour and then every hour with repetition.
For about two years, it has been cleaned and serviced by an expert watchmaker, who restored it to its former glory.
Can be considered in excellent condition, therefore operational.
The rigging is in good condition, replaced during restoration.
Authentic, including hand-molded brass hands.
Movement with perfect escapement. Excellent percussion.
It is well-timed.
The clock is supplied complete with weights and a pendulum, as shown in the photos.
Restoring this rare Comtoise clock required time and money. In this regard, I prefer to carry out a secure and protected shipment!
Size 25x14 cm and 39 cm in height including the bell.
The total weight is 14.1 kg, and almost 20 kilograms packaged.
Clock weighing 5,200 kg, pendulum G. 900, weights respectively 4.00 kg.
The shipment will be made by registered mail with appropriate packaging.
N.B. The costs refer to the total weight of over 20 kilograms!!!
Even the materials used for packaging.
Any additional customs fees are the responsibility of the recipient.
The photos are an integral part of the description.
Happy bidding.
