This clock is in very good condition for its age. I do not know the exact date, but this model was produced around 1906. Please inspect the HD pictures included. The clock keeps very good time. When fully wound, it runs for the full eight days. It chimes on the half hour and hour. The movement has been properly oiled. If you have no experience with using mechanical clocks, I would kindly prefer that you refrain from purchasing this clock. Mechanical clocks are complex timepieces that are not plug n’ play devices.
