The bottom glass window opens and is where the pendulum shows and also shows Waterbury Clock Company Paper Listing. Sold As Is! Excellent item! COMPLETE! MEASURES: 19 1/2" x 14 1/2" x 4". PLEASE WAIT FOR INVOICE HISTORY: In 1854, Waterbury, Connecticut based brass manufacturer Benedict & Burnham created Waterbury Clock Company to manufacture clocks using brass wheels and gears. Waterbury Clock Company was legally incorporated on March 27, 1857, as an independent business with $60,000 in capital.The American clock industry, with scores of companies located in Connecticut's Naugatuck Valley, was producing millions of clocks, earning the region the nickname, "Switzerland of America". The Waterbury Clock Company was one of the largest producers for both domestic sales and export, primarily to Europe. Today its successor, Timex Group USA, Inc. is the only remaining watch company in the region. Originally, the company produced clocks as less expensive alternatives to the high-end European counterparts of the time. In 1887 the company began experimenting with its product line, leading to the creation of the large Jumbo pocket watch, invented by Archibald Bannatyne and named after the famous P. T. Barnum elephant. The Jumbo was put on the market in New York City on a trial basis, catching the attention of Robert H. Ingersoll, a salesman and eventual marketing pioneer. During the turn of the century, Waterbury Clock Company produced millions of pocket watches for the newly created partnership of Robert and his brother Charles, Robert H. Ingersoll & Bro., under their own brand name. In 1896, Ingersoll introduced the Ingersoll Yankee, a dollar pocket watch supplied by Waterbury Clock Company. These watches gained such great popularity that they became known as "the watch that made the dollar famous."In 1877, a new prototype was introduced to Benedict and Burnham for an inexpensive pocket watch made of 58 parts, mostly made of punched sheet brass. They immediately set aside an unused portion of their machine shop and began producing the Long Wind at a rate of 200 per day by 1878. The department quickly outgrew its space in the plant, so with a capital of $400,000 Waterbury Clock's sister company Waterbury Watch Company was incorporated by Benedict & Burnham in 1880 to manufacture and sell inexpensive watches and other timepieces. Waterbury Watch started out very successfully in its early days, employing hundreds of women for their "slender fingers" and "delicate manipulation," having become the largest volume producer of watches in the world by 1888.Due to poor sales techniques, where jobbers and salesmen gave away much of the Waterbury Watch products as loss leaders with little regard to the company's future, thereby cheapening the products' perceived value, Waterbury Watch quickly fell into bankruptcy. In a last attempt to salvage the company, Waterbury Watch began to produce higher-end watch models which only created more demand on a workforce unable to keep up with the complexity of the new watches using several hundred parts. The company was finally reorganized as the New England Watch Company in 1898 as its London sales office was placed into liquidation. The company continued to focus on high-priced watch models and eventually fell into receivership, discontinuing business in July 1912. Robert H. Ingersoll & Bro. bought the Waterbury plant and began manufacturing Ingersoll Watches there in 1914. With the American entry into World War I there were new demands for timepiece design. Artillery gunners needed an easy way to calculate and read time while still being able to work the guns. The Waterbury Clock Company met this need by modifying the small Ingersoll ladies' Midget pocket watch to become military-issue wristwatches — lugs were added for a canvas strap, the crown was repositioned to 3 o'clock, hands and numbers were made luminescent for nighttime readability, thus making one of the first wrist watches. In 1922, Waterbury Clock Company purchased the Robert H. Ingersoll & Bro. company for $1,500,000, which had gone bankrupt the previous year due to the post-war recession, thereby inheriting all of Ingersoll's and Waterbury Watch's assets and facilities. Unable to deliver on Ingersoll's guarantee of quality in Europe due to the Great Depression, Waterbury Clock sold the London-based Ingersoll, Ltd. to its Board of Directors in 1930, making it a wholly British-owned enterprise. The "powerful Ingersoll brand name" was continued in the United States by Waterbury Clock into the 1950s. No longer part of Waterbury Clock Company, Ingersoll Ltd. continued to produce the Ingersoll watch brand independently for the European and other international markets. Following the Great Depression and a period of hardship for the company, Waterbury Clock Company regained its identity in the consumer market. In 1930, a license agreement was reached with Walt Disney, resulting in the production of the famous Mickey Mouse watches and clocks under the Ingersoll brand name. The new Mickey Mouse timepieces were introduced to the public at the Chicago World's Fair in June 1933 and quickly became the company's first million-dollar line, saving it from financial disaster. In 1940, Thomas Olsen (owner and operator of Fred. Olsen Shipping Co.) and Joakim Lehmkuhl fled Norway with their families because of the Nazi invasion Eventually they came to the United States seeking investments to assist in the war effort. In 1941, Olsen and Lehmkuhl purchased controlling interest in Waterbury Clock Company, with Thomas Olsen becoming Chairman. Though the company had fallen on hard times during the Great Depression it still had the manufacturing capability to make large numbers of timing devices. Mr. Lehmkuhl, who had studied business and engineering at Harvard and MIT, was appointed President by Olsen and, under his direction, the company became the largest producer of fuse timers for precision defense products in the United States. A new concrete plant was built in nearby Middlebury, Connecticut in 88 days in 1942 for the high-volume production of precision timers. In August 1943, the Army-Navy "E" Award for excellence was awarded by the United States Under-Secretary of War to Waterbury Clock Company for the "Anglo-American fuse". As a result of this success shareholders in the following December voted to rename the company to United States Time Corporation.

Rare Micrometer Strasser & Rohde, Glashütte iS (Clock makers)
Rare Micrometer Strasser & Rohde, Glashütte iS with box (bottom only)It functions but may need serviced if your actually going to use it.HistoryThe company was founded in 1875 by the watchmaker Ludwig Strasser and the mechanic Gustav Rohde . The firm was located in Glashütte , long a center of clockmakers, in the Prussian province of Saxony . The watchmaker Curt Dietzschold was co-owner for a short time. Although Strasser became increasingly involved with the Deutsche Uhrmacherschule Glashütte , he remained a partner until 1914. Rohde was now elderly and in 1918 the company was taken over by the industrialist Friedrich Kreis, who leased it to the watchmaker Paul Weiss for 24,000 Goldmark . [1] Kreis also owned factories in Berlin and Switzerland, so Strasser & Rohde had access to parts and semi-finished products from third parties. [2] Weiss bought the company after Kreis' death in 1925 and led the company until his death in 1943, after which his widow Margarethe briefly took charge. After the Second World War, management fell to Arno Wustlich, son-in-law of Paul and Margarethe, who had been working for the company for some time. He led the company until bankruptcy in 1958 ProductsInitially the company produced various precision equipment such as micrometers , calculators and the then recent invention of the taximeter . Later, Strasser & Rohde focused entirely on watches and related equipment. The company tried to achieve the highest possible accuracy by making improvements to various parts of the mechanism. All Strasser & Rohde clocks could be traced back to one basic type, called the Glashütter Präzisions Pendeluhr (GPPU) , in which the coupling between pendulum and movement was mounted in reverse order. Several watchmakers have contributed to this development. The " free spring escapement " invented and patented by Strasser had a perfecting role in this. With this construction the pendulum was disconnected from the work in progress, allowing it to move more precisely. The company first presented this invention at the Saxon Thuringian Industrial Exhibition of 1897 and was awarded a gold medal at the 1900 World Exhibition in Paris . [3] Based on this invention, the company manufactured pendulum clocks of the highest possible accuracy, mainly for scientific purposes. In the Netherlands, four clocks were ordered from Strasser & Rohde for scientific purposes between 1904 and 1911. One of these was used for the National Commission for Grade Measurement and Water Passing , the other three probably by the Leiden Observatory. Museum Boerhaave in Leiden has an astronomical pendulum clock by Strasser & Rohde, which for a long time served as the master clock for all clocks in the Leiden Observatory . [4] One of the other three stood in the old Geodesy building of TU Delft on Kanaalweg, [5] until it was converted into a student house. (Condition: Pre-Owned)
