Gustav Becker 4-glass Anniversary Clock

I just finished restoring a rather nice Becker anniversary clock (serial number 2070440) and noted a couple of interesting points.

I was surprised when restoring the winding arbor pivots - a lot of cracks in the arbor running along the length of the pivot. Good news is that, properly burnished, I don't think these will cause problems. But clearly not the quality I would expect in a Becker anniversary clock.
