Mahogany Wood Case Runs! Serial # 6403025, Produced in 1942. Would make a great gift or keep for yourself! There was no outer case that came with this model, only the inner case that holds the movement, which is how originally offered. We can therefore better control our acquisition costs, keep commission costs low (if applicable), and finally, we don’t have the overhead that the higher end houses and art galleries experience. Nice mahogany wood case. No cracks, hairlines, or repairs to the wood case. Some very minor finish loss to the case from age and use. The push button latch on the top part of the case is in place and operates. The lock is in place on the bottom of the case, no key comes with this offering. The bottom of the wood case has green felt on it. The glass inside the case is intact, no cracking or blistering. The gimbal ring and the lock for the ring are in place. Still has a fairly good brass lacquer finish on them. The movement has a silver colored face. The minute, hour and seconds hand are black and look appropriate to the clock. The wind strength meter hand is not in place. This is an 8 day movement, so if wound fully the clock would run for 8 days. A 17 jewel movement. We do not recommend that antique clock movements ever be wound tightly. There is no serial number on the gimbal ring or the case of the chronometer. Serial number is 6403025, which would date the piece to 1942. Also, has 21.29 noted on the back of the movement. The brass gimbal ring and the case for the movement show some tarnishing and finish loss as well. The chronometer case is 4-3/16″ tall, by 6″ across, by 6 wide. The clock face is 2-7/8 across. Let us know if you have any questions or need additional pictures. Don’t be shy to make an offer, we are always open to reasonable suggestions. There is no representation that the chronometer is in original condition, or will continue to be in working order.
