Condition: Unfortunately this clock NO LONGER WORKS. Or it works sporadically. Please see video. When the wind-up knob/dial is pulled out it sometimes will start working before stopping again. I'm sure this is an easy fix for someone who knows how. It probably just needs a service. So for these reasons I'm selling this clock as "NOT WORKING" / Restoration project / AS IS. Aesthetically the clock shows signs of use and wear. The wooden mount is marked in places. Please examine all the pictures closely. Zoom in & out to get a good sense of its exact condition: a picture tells a thousand words. The item photos serve as a document as to its condition. This Waltham 8 Day Civil Day clock is a truly great find and will prove to be the perfect addition or gift for collectors of a certain taste and age. This clock was originally in an F6F Hellcat World War 2 military aircraft. Indeed it is mounted on a wonderful wooden display indicating its origin.  CONDITION, PLEASE READ.
