The movement is German, but... NEW

The clock was made in Zeeland, Michigan. Colonial Clock was in business from 1875 until 1989, competing with two other Zeeland clock manufacturers: Howard Miller and Sligh. In fact, Howard Miller's brother was at one time president of Colonial Clock, then went on to build the office furniture company Herman Miller.

Colonial Clock made a huge variety of cases. Yours very closely resemblers one I own, but the dial is different. You can usually find the case number stamped on the back, and this can help you date the clock.
