Two Weight Serpentine Vienna Regulator – Circa 1880

Dial is signed by Robert Rožánek — it will give me some genealogy to work on. An F C Rožánek is known to have been a clockmaker in Budweis in the 1880s
The “Bottom dropped out” at some time in the past.
Wood weakened by worm holes.
Head piece appears to be original.
I saved this from the scrap heap. The owner was ready to “part it out”.
