S. Marti oval crystal regulator, ca. 1900.  This brass case is 10.25 inches tall with four bowed and beveled glasses and a decorated porcelain dial with pierced brass hands.  The brass is a bit dull, especially on top; there is a hairline in the dial and a chip at the strike winding arbor.  The glasses are good.  The signed pendule de Paris 8-day, time-and-strike movement is signed and running, regulated by a two-vial mercury pendulum.  It strikes the hours and half-hours. $100-$200.
