Glass Dial Pendant Mystery Bank Clock. 24 in. octagonal glass dial is reverse embossed and gilt decorated, outer ring has minute markers with large 3 in. hour numbers inside, dial has center advertising for a bank which reads “Time – To Start An Account” and has pierced carved wood hands with counter balances. Runs on an 8 day movement signed “Hebdomas” which is contained in the counter balance section of the minute hand and completely hidden; movement is spring driven and stem wind with lever escapement and a fancy engraved bridge. In running condition, dial has 2 flaked chips on corners, but is overall very nice.
