Clock mounted on the Saint Louis Cathedral in Versailles, France.
The building is of the mid-18th century: the first stone was laid, by Louis XV, on 12 June 1743 and the church was consecrated on 24 August 1754.
The clock dating probably from that date is mounted in window over the main door. It has a blue face with gold decoration around it. The pointers and numbers (Large Roman numerals and Smaller Latin numerals) painted gold. Theres no inscription about the manufacturer.
