AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A very early fire-gilded pendulum clock by Honore Pons, dated gold medal 1827. It has three identical numbers, a very rare specimen, since the numbers are 3 × 139 — one on the pendulum, one behind the movement, and one in the lunette, which is very uncommon. The size is 37x26x10 cm; it runs and strikes well. It concerns a cord-driven movement. It will be well packed and shipped by registered mail.
