Hi Ross!  I've had a number (a small number, indeed) of this style
cabinet.  Some have called it a "dinner box" (though that's usually
ascribed to a box that plays for about 20 minutes) or a "buffet box"
(because you could see the movement on the buffet while sitting at
the table?).

While unusual in format, that's just what it is -- a different
"style" of case.  I have an empty case just like it in my basement.
Any movement of the correct size could be put into it.  I've seen
a few with a bell movement inside; I can send you pictures of one
that I had a number of years ago if you like.

There's always something interesting popping up!  That's what keeps
this fun!
