condition:

authentic and very nice condition for its age. The photos are not "embellished", the case condition is as shown in the photos.
worth knowing:
the "clock that lives on air" uses the "breathing movements" of a gas-filled bellows caused by temperature fluctuations to wind the movement.
the movement of the clock is characterised by its cylindrical box on the back. It contains a bellows-shaped expansion chamber filled with chloroethyl, a gas that expands particularly strongly between 10 °c and 27 °c.
the condition for the accuracy of the clock is a stable and vibration-free installation. This piece has an attribution mark,
