Travel alarm by T. or C. Maurel A Paris - with mallet and bracket - from the year around 1877 / 1880

I am offering a functional travel alarm clock made of brass. It has only been reviewed once. Something for a collector who knows how to adjust it. The hands are adjusted from the front while the winding mechanism and the bracket are operated from the back. After winding, please move it somewhat to the side and put it down. It will run more than a day. The dial exhibits minor hairline tears and two small pieces broke off the pointer shaft, from a distance of 40 cm, it is not discernible anymore. It was manufactured around 1878 and also received a Brevete Medaille Dor. It is a very rare piece and there are not many left, but each clock collector should have such a rarity. The travel alarm is 9 cm high, with handle: 11.5 and 7 cm wide as well as 4.5 cm deep. Please see the photos in detail. It will be well packaged and shipped insured.
