It has a plain domed case with moulded decoration made from figured rouge marble.

The movement is a fourteen-day striking mechanism with an open brocot escapement which is made and signed by Samuel Marti of Paris who was awarded medals for his exceptional mechanisms. The dial is in gilt bronze with a white enamelled chapter ring with black numerals which is behind a decorative cast and glazed bezel which is hinged and opens to give access to the winding points, hands and the regulator. The back has a similar hinged door to access the back of the movement below which is a similar glass panel that enables you to see right through the clock.
