It is an Ansonia, (trade mark above the 6). That is all I can tell you right now. I will look through some of my books when I get a chance.

Any markings on the back of the case?
It looks very similar to a model identified by one Auctioneer as a 'Pequod' from circa 1900.
Here are some other examples. Take a look and see what you think:

There are only three other examples. I had trouble posting and it looks like some of the links duplicated but you get the idea. Two are very close to your clock. The other looks like a dead match. That's all I could find. I didn't see your model in any of my reference books. Hope that helps a little.
