Scope and content
Main dial: eight-day, two-train arched with moon, centre painting. Applied chapter ring, square date aperture, head and foliage spandrels; maps in hemispheres. This dial had had the centre mistakenly painted in acrylic, because the original oil painting was lost. Dial plate could have been soaked in chemicals, nothing left of it, so new scene had to be made up following the style of the moon.
