Museum collection (Carefully reading the ad clarifies the details).

Beautiful 'COMTOISE' clock, skeleton design, with zone activation. Brass/iron.
Watch dating back to around 1850, with normal signs of age.
Original carved hands.
Percussion with an external hammer on a bell, causing it to produce a sound. Every half-hour and on the hour, it is struck on the large bell with repetition.

Rope replaced.
Authentic, including hand-molded brass hands.
Movement with perfect lever escapement. Excellent percussions.
It holds the exhaust well.
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!
