Description from the seller

Unique collection mostly of 14 French timepieces from various clockmakers but also from Japy Frères, J.S. Samuel Marti, Farret a Paris etc. Most movements are complete, several bells are missing but there are 9 loose bells. In some clocks the mainspring is broken. The collection comes from a deceased clockmaker. Also note the beautiful dials. Some have a few hairline cracks. Photos form part of the description. Movements are shipped insured but can also be picked up.
