The clock is in working condition. By my measurement, it loses approximately 2 minutes per day and runs for approximately 7 days on a full wind, so it may benefit from adjustment or servicing if precise timekeeping is desired.
The rear plate is marked AUG. SCHATZ & SOHNE GERMANY with 59 in the center. The case is also stamped Made in West Germany, placing it in the postwar West German production period.

Condition:
Good vintage condition with normal age-related wear. The clock runs and lasts about 7 days per wind, but it loses approximately 2 minutes per day and may need adjustment for more accurate timekeeping. Brass case shows tarnish, spotting, discoloration, scratches, and patina from age. Clear panels show surface wear. Interior movement is visible and presents nicely. Please review all photos carefully for condition.
A nice vintage German mechanical clock for display, collection, restoration, or continued use.
