Boett of gold, dial of enamel, work with s. k. Spindle and Percussion. Decor engraved and in broken pattern. Ground shell slightly convex, with a vulst-shaped outer edge. In the middle a smooth field, in the middle of which a three-branched twig, each branch with a flaked leaf, above the middle one hole for the barrel. Calling the outer edge a broken stretcher with S - shaped about each other walking acanthus leaf ranks, closest to the midfield contiguous out - and inward-facing arches with rolled ends; among the ranks on each side a fantastic fish head. Up to and down a derelict field, the lower shell format and obliquely set, in this a mansmaskaron, the upper lying oval, with a landscape: on the left a tree, in the middle a fence, on the right a wall and two towers, the front slightly larger. Calling the upper edge a wave line between narrow stripes. Glass frame smooth, with strong convex glass and with the charner at the upper edge, at the opposite a nail attachment. Fry tall, arcuate, inside and outside flaked, on each side an upturned palm leaf. The jaw bracket is made of a cylindrical tube, with a sliding post, on the upper end a round flat knob; the post joined by the percussion. Dial white, with black Roman h - and Arabic minute figures, as read from within, the latter given for each hour figure. Between the figures minute lines between two fine lines, inside the hourly figures a similar line. Viewer two of steel, blue. On the hourly viewer two ring-shaped projections, between which a three-pointed tip is inserted; the minute viewer at the inner and outer ends with an elongated extension, from which a long tip is later removed. Work with a round oroklove of gilded brass, broken through, with a snail shaped acanthus leaf ornaments, in the middle a small round plate (p. k. countersteel) of steel.

Percussion striking full hours and blocks, when the existing post in the building bracket was shot. The sound is induced by two seated steel hammers on the edge of the work, which strike a bowl of bell metal in the bottom shell, attached to the shell with a blue screw.

The upper work a protective capsule of gilded brass, on its upper side a round elevation for the turnip, on the elevation around the edge a heel, at each edge a round hole, one for the barrel, the other for the ruckerpin, next to the latter a bow shaped hole for the figures on the ruckartboard.

Title: S. k. double protection cage repeater
Description:
Boett of gold, dial of enamel, work with s.
k.
Spindle and Percussion.
Decor engraved and in broken pattern.
Ground shell slightly convex, with a vulst-shaped outer edge.
In the middle a smooth field, in the middle of which a three-branched twig, each branch with a flaked leaf, above the middle one hole for the barrel.
Calling the outer edge a broken stretcher with S - shaped about each other walking acanthus leaf ranks, closest to the midfield contiguous out - and inward-facing arches with rolled ends; among the ranks on each side a fantastic fish head.
Up to and down a derelict field, the lower shell format and obliquely set, in this a mansmaskaron, the upper lying oval, with a landscape: on the left a tree, in the middle a fence, on the right a wall and two towers, the front slightly larger.
Calling the upper edge a wave line between narrow stripes.
Glass frame smooth, with strong convex glass and with the charner at the upper edge, at the opposite a nail attachment.
Fry tall, arcuate, inside and outside flaked, on each side an upturned palm leaf.
The jaw bracket is made of a cylindrical tube, with a sliding post, on the upper end a round flat knob; the post joined by the percussion.
Dial white, with black Roman h - and Arabic minute figures, as read from within, the latter given for each hour figure.
Between the figures minute lines between two fine lines, inside the hourly figures a similar line.
Viewer two of steel, blue.
On the hourly viewer two ring-shaped projections, between which a three-pointed tip is inserted; the minute viewer at the inner and outer ends with an elongated extension, from which a long tip is later removed.
Work with a round oroklove of gilded brass, broken through, with a snail shaped acanthus leaf ornaments, in the middle a small round plate (p.
k.
countersteel) of steel.
Ruckartavla of silver, rotatable, on this engraved round the outer edge a division of a cross line and within the numbers 5, 10, 15, 20, 30.
Percussion striking full hours and blocks, when the existing post in the building bracket was shot.
The sound is induced by two seated steel hammers on the edge of the work, which strike a bowl of bell metal in the bottom shell, attached to the shell with a blue screw.
The work on the same scharner as the glass frame, at the opposite edge a spring hook with a nail print at the edge.
The upper work a protective capsule of gilded brass, on its upper side a round elevation for the turnip, on the elevation around the edge a heel, at each edge a round hole, one for the barrel, the other for the ruckerpin, next to the latter a bow shaped hole for the figures on the ruckartboard.
In the side-edge hole of the capsule for the hammers.
The capsule is restrained by two from the work through the upper side firing pins, closed by a bow shaped narrow rail of steel, slightly sliding on a mid-seated note.
Internal Protection Boat: Of Gold.
Decor ciselled and in broken pattern.
On the bottom shell in the middle a smooth field with contoured edge and surrounded by contiguous profiled arc with rolled ends.
Calling the outer edge a broken acanthus leaf stripe, in which four saved leaf ropes.
The glass frame with a stripe resembled that on the bottom shell, around the upper edge a profiled strip.
Calling the upper edge of the bottom shell and the lower edge of the glass frame a similar cunning, which moldings together form a sharply bought back.
The Scharner at the left edge, at the opposite a spring hook with a protruding pressure knob; on the glass frame a small knob shaped nail attachment.
Outer guard: Of gilded bronze, dressed on the outside with pressed green skin.
On the base shell in bronze relief: in the middle a five-sided box with turned sides, formed by a series of closely seated small round buds, within this a ring of small round rosettes with a larger one in the middle; at each corner of the box a tip of three rosettes and two buds, similar to the ones mentioned, between these a tip of a bow and two buds.
Calling the outer edge a series of three-flaked leaves.
Glass frame with a leaf row like that on the bottom shell, around the upper edge a profiled strip.
Calling the upper edge of the bottom shell and the lower edge of the glass frame a oblique protruding strip, which moldings together form a sharply bought back.
The Scharner at the left edge, at the opposite a spring hook with a protruding pressure knob; in the glass frame a small knob shaped nail attachment.
Inside lined with red silk plush.
