Type: Dashboard/Plancia clock (Power reserve: 4 days)
Diameter: 9 cm

Weight: 350 g
Condition and Operation
Appearance: The item presents in its charming original state of preservation, with a beautiful patina of time on the metal case and a legible, characteristic white dial, enriched by the original logos clearly visible.
Mechanical Operation: The winding wheel properly winds the mainspring, proving the barrel is intact. When pulling the knob, the time-setting moves smoothly and correctly.
Note: The clock currently does not run. The balance wheel and gears require a technical maintenance intervention for revision and professional cleaning/lubrication due to probable resolidification of old internal lubricants.

Tracked shipping and careful packing.
