I was looking at the hurled walnut on the top and thought it looked odd but I think it is original. It definitely has age lines and is cracking. I think someone stripped and stained the clock case so maybe that is why it looks odd.

I have not taken it apart yet and didn't scrutinize the dial but it looked pretty good.
Thanks for the offer. Is the dial paper?
