Description from the seller
Clock "COMTOISE", operated in zones. Brass/enamel with its original, completely intact old casting, reminiscent of a scene with cherubs.
Clock dating to around 1860, has a signed dial, with a central crack in the enamel, cleaned, with normal signs of wear.
Original carved hands.
Strikes with hammer on a bell.
Recently overhauled, cleaned and oiled by an expert watchmaker. Cordage replaced. Works regularly.
Case clean and repainted as a work of art.
Authentic, including manually shaped brass hands.
Movement with perfect escapement. Strikes excellent. Repetition superb.
Keeps the escapement well.
N.B. The clock is supplied WITHOUT winding key, WITHOUT weights or pendulum.
It is advisable to use weights of 3.5 kg for winding and 4 kg for the strike.
Repairing this Comtoise has required time and money. In that regard, I prefer to perform a secure and protected shipment!

Weighs 4.8 kg.
N.B. Shipping will be carried out by registered mail with proper packaging.
