AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
No reserve price
Beautiful 'COMTOISE' clock, made with zone-driven movement. Brass/enamel with its old, fully intact casting, reminiscent of a bucolic scene.
Recently serviced by an expert watchmaker. Cleaned to an artful standard. Winding stem replaced.
Excellent
Watch dating back to around 1860, with a signed dial, intact with normal signs of aging.
Original carved hands.
Percussion with an external hammer on a bubble, which indicates the rarity of the object.
Recently serviced, cleaned, and oiled by an expert watchmaker. It works regularly.
Good cordage. Rizla cleaned with a specific product. Case cleaned and expertly repainted.
Authentic, including hand-molded brass hands.
Movement with perfect escapement. Excellent percussion. Excellent repetition.
It holds the exhaust well.
N.B. The clock is supplied WITHOUT the winding key, WITHOUT weights or pendulum, which in the photos are for illustrative purposes only! We recommend using weights of 3.5 kilograms for winding and 4 for striking.
The restoration of this Comtoise involved time and money.
Measures 25x15 cm and 42 cm in height including the hat.
Weighs 5.600 kg.
N.B. Shipping will be via registered mail with suitable packaging.
The costs also include the materials used for packaging.
Any additional customs fees are the responsibility of the recipient.
