Status: Sold

Seth Thomas produced this walnut-cased drop circle regulator wall clock, featuring a large round molded bezel with glass over a white painted metal dial signed "SETH THOMAS" and marked "MANUFACTURED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" along the chapter ring, with black Roman numeral hours, black hour and minute hands, and a subsidiary seconds dial below center. Lower case section holds a door opening to a brass pendulum bob suspended on its rod, with the case back stamped with the number "58810" in stenciled numerals. Movement is time-and-strike, weight-driven, indicated by the brass cylindrical drive weight with hanging hook included and shown separately, along with the original brass and steel winding crank key. Case shows an aged finish with minimal wear, scuffing, and grain separation to the reverse panel consistent with age, while the dial glass, bezel, and pendulum door hardware remain intact. The crank key also locks the lower door. The movement appears to be in very good condition and the clock is in overall very good condition. Dimensions: 15 1/4"W X 36 1/2"H
