This clock keeps good time - within 5 minutes per week variation. The pendulum bob is probably not original but the benefit is that it is adjustable. The case is in good shape with no major scuffs or scratches - just a few very minor dings which are hardly noticeable due to the extensive embellishments that take up all the attention.
I doubt that the dial is original as it is in such great shape. You'll notice that the hands are held onto the stem with a tapered wood dowel (probably toothpick). Lastly, the half hour strike is about 4 minutes past the half hour. The top of the hour strikes very close to the top of the hour (I believe within a minute).Note that the clock is working fine now but it is possible that at any time the spring(s) can break and/or malfunction. This has happened to me in the past on multiple occasions - it is part of the territory for these type of clocks. Eventually, you will need to service the clock over time. Right now, it works well.
