The movement is a twin fusee, five pillar, eight day duration on chain with pull repeat action which strikes the hours on a bell. The clock has a strike-silent feature on the dial and the engraved pendulum has top adjustment and a hold fast. The brass back plate is engraved which also has the makers name.
