The five-glass case with bevelled panels is the classic form, allowing the movement to be admired from all sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThe platform escapement is visible through the top bevelled glass panel — the balance wheel ticking steadily and the lever escapement engaging with each beat. It is one of the quiet pleasures of owning a mechanical carriage clock. The brass case has been carefully cleaned and gently polished to conservation standard — enough to present well without destroying the natural aged patina that gives a genuine antique carriage clock its character. It has not been over-polished or buffed to a showroom finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n    \u003chr\u003e\n\n    \u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n      \u003ch2\u003eService — What Was Done\u003c\/h2\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eFully serviced by Mahn \u0026amp; Co prior to sale — a comprehensive workshop preparation:\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cul class=\"checklist\"\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eMovement fully stripped to component level\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eAll components ultrasonically cleaned\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eMainspring inspected, cleaned and re-greased\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eMainspring barrel serviced\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003ePlatform escapement inspected and adjusted\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eMovement reassembled with correct lubrication\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eCase carefully cleaned\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eLeather travelling case cleaned and retained\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eRunning and keeping time at listing\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eWinding key supplied\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n    \u003chr\u003e\n\n    \u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n      \u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThe brass case presents with a warm natural patina — deliberately left unpolished to preserve its honest antique character.
