Welch, Spring & Co. “Round Top Drop”, ca. 1874.  A 25.5-inch case veneered in rosewood with a grain-painted bezel, two original glasses with a good tablet.  The dial was repainted long ago, the hands are proper replacements. The unsigned ladder-style movement is time only, 8 days, and is running strongly.  There is a good but dark label inside. A nice example of this model.  RO Schmitt’s sold one in 2018 for $100.  $100-$200.
