Pierced and engraved cock with diamond endstone, solid engraved foot and plate for the silver regulator disc.  Fusee and chain with worm and wheel barrel setup between the plates. Plain three arm steel balance, blue steel spiral hairspring. Polished steel cylinder, large brass escape wheel.  Winding through the white enamel dial, Roman and Arabic numerals, gold beetle and poker hands.   Contemporary gilt inner case.
