Condition of the dial is very good with lovely old paint, some slight marks to
the copper backing. On the back of the dial is the remote motion work which
looks to be in good condition, some wear to the gears but really just requires
cleaning. The counter weight for the minute hand is there. The movement is also
in good condition
but requires cleaning and restoring, comes with the pendulum (may not be original but is perfectly
useable), retaining brackets and a short drive shaft for the dial, the weight
and winding crank are missing. The Brandreth and Walker signature is on the subsidiary dial
on the movement.
A rare and desirable dial and movement, ideal to restore and install on your
stable, garage etc or very decorative for interior design.
