Viennese Dachluhr-style regulator, 1912-1922.  This is a beautiful Vienna made in the twentieth century by Jos. Mühlhauser, Wiener Uhrenindustrie GmbH. In Vienna.  The 41-inch case is made from a wood I can’t identify, with intricately inlayed darker wood around the dial.  There is an upper door and a lower door with wavy glass is each and two sidelights.  The backboard is also made of this remarkably grained wood.  The dial is milk-glass, the numbering in paint with some loss.  There is a hairline crack from the left winding port to the number 8.  The 8-day, time-and-strike movement is signed Wiener Uhrenindustrie GmbH with a serial number of 655 on the movement and mounting bracket.  It is running and striking on the hours and half-hours, driven by two rather worn and dented weights, probably not original to this clock. Nonetheless, it is a beautiful clock.  This is a rare maker and I cannot find another example that has sold.  If you can provide any guidance please let me know.  I’m estimating $750-$1500.
