The clock certainly looks German. I took a chance and bought it because it was a good looking clock.

Very close inspection reveals a Mauthe 1-Jewel Movement. So it must be a Mauthe clock, circa 1930's. I have no idea what "Fasco" refers to, maybe a seller.

Looks like a nice clock Nelson,

Do you do the cleaning and service yourself?

I do the cleaning myself and case repair and cleaning. I am learning to tackle the repair jobs such as mainspring replacement and bushing.
