Here is a link you will find all the info you want on your clock.

The only issue Your clock shows...is that it is painted different colors.  All of the ones I have seen are solid color.

There were a lot of variations on this clock !! I didn`t find a painted one either but thats not to say they didn`t make them !! The body of the clock is made of pot metal with most having a thin bronze plating !! Some were without the plating but most had a one of some type  !!  Auction estimates run between $75. and $100. in perfect condition !! But since there are so many of these I think the auction sites are overestimating !! More realistic price would be $40. to $60. range !!
