This movement has been attributed to Friedrich Mauthe of Schwenningen. 1920's.
They did not sign all of their movements, leaving one to compare aspects of design with signed examples.
Dial is nicely etched and the case looks to be well constructed.
Overall mechanics of chime and strike are virtually identical to other German movements of the period.

Thank you very much.
I googled the name and there was a picture of a signed movement that is a near perfect match.
Yes the reason I bought the clock was I really liked the case and dial.
