Seth Thomas “Regulator No. 1 Extra”, ca. 1875.  The case has been completely re-veneered with walnut by a professional.  Absolutely flawless.  The original dial pan was repainted, the hands correct except for the unusual seconds hand.  The dial glass is modern, the door glass repainted and wavy.  The weight shield is original with a good label.  The movement is the S.B. Terry round-type, as seen on page 272 of Ly’s Seth Thomas Clocks & Movements, Vol. 1, dating this clock to the early 1870’s.  The pendulum stick is original, the bob has lost all its brass finish; the weight is a replacement.  The clock is running and keeping time without issue.  If you don’t mind the replaced veneer this is a great clock at a great price.  $750-$1200.
