Thanks Paul for the advice.
There are no signs of dial fixing indicating this is not the original dial. I have been looking at pictures of Black Forest clocks and they do have a type with so called “shield dials” like this one, but they are almost always painted. Anyhow, original or not, it is a nice dial.
I do not understand the little brass dial in the middel. It has numerals from 1 to 12 around and turns with the hour wheel. Can someone explain what the purpose is?
