Beautiful - I always love those engraved face plates.
......... and just to for the hell of it, HIlaire Belloc wrote some great typical sundial mottos:
Stealthy the silent hours advance, and still;
And each may wound you, and the last shall kill.
And:
I that still point to one enduring star
Abandoned am, as all the Constant are.
....... but my favourite is:
I am a sundial, and I make a botch
Of what is done far better by a watch.
