Waltham 31 Day Chime Clock (Mantel/Desk Clock)

This is a Waltham 31-day chime clock, likely a mantel or desk clock given its form factor and the visible base. The clock's casing is constructed from richly stained dark wood, possibly mahogany or a similar hardwood, with a polished, glossy finish. The top features a decorative arched pediment, characteristic of traditional clock designs. The front of the clock showcases a metallic dial, possibly silver or pewter-toned, behind a clear glass or acrylic panel. The dial prominently displays 'Waltham' and '31 Day' printed on its face, confirming its brand and winding duration. Time is indicated by black Roman numerals for the hours, with smaller Arabic numerals for minutes around the outer edge. The hands are black, simple, and elegant. Surrounding the main time-telling dial are ornate, brass-toned filigree adornments at the four corners, adding to its classical aesthetic. Above the main dial, there's a smaller, circular sub-dial featuring a stylized globe with a grid pattern and the Latin phrase 'Tempus Fugit' (Time Flies), which is a common motif on traditional clocks. There are two visible keyholes on the main dial for winding, suggesting a manual winding mechanism for both timekeeping and the chime function. The overall condition appears good, with a visible slight smudge on the bottom left corner of the wooden base, but no significant damage or wear is immediately apparent from the provided images. The craftsmanship appears to be of standard quality for a mass-produced decorative chime clock, aiming for a classic, antique-inspired look. Given the '31 Day' mechanism, it suggests a more modern production than true antique clocks which often had 8-day movements.
