CR 1.6.26- As mentioned in the catalog description, the clock is accompanied by a pendulum and a key and was observed operating, it appeared to keep good time for five minutes, the suspension spring is intact, the bell and striker are present and resound nicely when manually struck, as mentioned it is lacking the back movement access door, as with all of our antique clocks, this piece would likely benefit from a professional adjustment and a thorough cleaning of the movement
