When the company Strasser & Rohde presented their precision pendulum clocks to the public in brochures or during world exhibitions, they often used this type of case with subtle, neoclassical elements that were stylish but never overloaded. Movement and pendulum are in the same wonderful condition as the beautiful case itself - no less perfect than they were 100 years ago, when this timepiece was originally sold. Strasser & Rohde usually delivered clocks that had no signature on the dial to clockmakers who then sold them under their own brand.
