Seth Thomas “Regulator No. 6”, ca. 1885.  A 47-inch walnut case with an old finish, slightly dull, and five proper finials including the center drop finial on the base.  The door glass is old and may be original, the zinc dial is slightly warped, most noticeable at the bottom, and has been repainted in ivory some time ago with the ST name below the mainstem.  The hour and minute hands are correct, the seconds bit a replacement.  The dial bezel is nickel, as is the ST weight, pulley, and damascened pendulum bob.  The unsigned, 8-day time-only movement is running without problem.  No label and no date of manufacture on the back.  A good example of this classic – and in nickel to boot.  $600-$1000.
