Important Multi Complication Chronometer Carriage Clock w Perpetual Calendar ...
eBay I have the privilege of offering this rare clock today for a dear friend who is in his 90s and has been slowly liquidating his collection through me over the past several years. This clock was purchased by him directly from Sinclair Harding in the 1980s. Clock measures 13 1/2" high, 17" with handle up, 8 1/4" wide, 7" side. As far as we know it is one of the most complicated clocks Harding has made and the only one to have ever been offered for resale until now. The condition is excellent! The clock has been very well taken care of though it has never been serviced because he was afraid to have someone take it apart. (Please keep in mind that this clock needs to be serviced) The Movement is running and has kept time since I set it about 15 hours ago. Repeater works but is sluggish though it's getting better each time I push it, same with the striking. I don't believe the clock has been wound in a couple years. The entire face of the clock measuring 10" x 6.5" is solid sterling silver with Birmingham hallmarks for 1983. I am not an expert though I will describe what I know so far about the complications. It is a striking and hour repeater, phases and age of the moon, zodiac sign display wheel, 2 wind indicators, perpetual calendar, day, date and month and a seconds indicator on the top near the balance. The movement is a high grade pivoted detent chronometer. The 2-tone full dial plate is solid sterling silver. Not sure exactly what wood was used though it is very dark and exotic with gilt brass mounts and inlays. If you are a clock maker, you can probably say quite a bit more about this clock as I'm sure I'm missing something. (Condition: Pre-Owned)

THIS ONE IS EQUISITE, AND ALL ASPECTS OF THIS MAGNIFICANT 8 BELL SONORA, INCLUDING BOTH CLOCK MOVEMENTS, NEST OF 8 BELLS, CABINET CONDITIONING, AND OTHER COMPONENTSHAVE BEEN FULLY RESTORED. ONE CAN LOOK A LONG, LONG TIME, BUT WILL NOT FIND A FULLY RESTORED SONORA CHIME CLOCK NO. 2000 LIKE THIS ONE! DESCRIPTION AND FEATURES THE EARLY PRE-CATALOG SONORA 2000 - 1912 IS THE HIGHLY PRIZED FORERUNNER, LEADING THE WAY FOR THE SETH THOMAS LARGE ELEGANT CABINET DEEP TONED 8 BELL SONORA CHIME CLOCKS OF THE EARLY 1900’S. CATALOGED PRODUCTION OF THE SONORA 2000 SERIES ACTUALLY BEGAN IN 1914, AND INCLUDED THE 2000, 2001, 2002, AND 2003. THERE ARE OTHER SMALLER BELL DIAMETER 8 BELL SONORAS, YET THE OVERALL TONAL QUALITY IN TERMS OF DEPTH, RESONANCE AND DECAY OF EACH NOTE CAN ONLY BE FOUND IN THE 2000 SERIES. I URGE YOU TO BE IN TOUCH WITH ME SHOULD YOU DESIRE MORE DETAILS ABOUT THE EVOLUTION OF SETH’S DEEP TONED 8 BELL SONORA SERIES LINEUP. THE CRONOLOGY IS QUITE INTERESTING AND INFORMATIVE. WITH A NEST OF EIGHT SUBERB 3¼ INCH DEEP TONED BELLS, A LARGE ACOUSTIC CHIME BELLS NEST, AND AN EXPANDED SOUND CHAMBER – ONE OF THE LARGEST SOUND CHAMBERS OF ANY CABINET CATHEDRAL SETH SONORA. THE WHITTINGTON AND THE WESTMINSTER CHIMES ARE RICH AND RESONANT – OTHER NON-SETH BELL CHIME ANTIQUE CLOCKS SIMPLY CANNOT COMPARE WITH THE GLORIOUS SOUND FROM THIS CHIME 2000 SONORA. THE NEW OWNER WILL DEFINITELY WANT TO PLACE THE SETH 2000 IN A VERY SPECIAL LOCATION IN THE HOME. THE SONORA 2000 - 1912 IS A DELIGHT TO VIEW, WITH A MELLOW SATIN DULL RUBBED RIBBON MAHOGANY PATINA AND A MAGNIFICANT, ELEGANT CABINET DESIGN. THE RICH AND TASTEFUL CABINET APPOINTMENTS INCLUDE FLUTED SIDE COLUMNS, A FULL COMPOUND MOULDING 180 DEGREE BONNET OVER THE DIAL AND DOOR, CABINET SIDE TRIM AND SIDE PANELS, RAISED PEDIMENT BASE, FRONT CABINET DOOR AND HEAVY BEVELED FRONT GLASS. THE PIERCED GOLD DIAL PLATE HAS 2 UPPER SUBSIDIARY DIALS AND A 6 INCH SILVERED DIAL RING, AND IS A TRULY DRAMATIC PRESENCE. THE ORIGINAL SHELLAC ON THE RIBBON MAHOGANY FINISH WAS AMALGAMATED WITH FRESH AMBER SHELLAC AND HAND RUBBED - THE ENTIRE CABINET WAS PROFESSIONALLY CONDITIONED WITH MY SPECIAL PROCESS, IN ORDER TO BRING FORTH THE RICHNESS OF THE ORIGINAL HIGHLIGHTS OF THE HIGHEST GRADE RIBBON MAHOGANY – TIME CONSUMING, YES – BUT JUST LOOK AT THE BEAUTY OF THIS EIGHTEEN AND ONE-HALF INCH HIGH SONORA NO. 2000 DORIC CATHEDRAL STYLE CABINET! THIS EIGHT BELL SONORA CHIME CLOCK NUMBER 2000 IN NEAR-PERFECT CONDITION IS A MOST SOUGHT AFTER SETH THOMAS SONORA BY COLLECTORS AND SONORA ENTHUSIASTS. FINDING ONE THAT IS, OR CAN BE, COMPLETELY RESTORED IS PLAIN DIFFICULT BECAUSE MOST ARE ALREADY PART OF PRIVATE COLLECTIONS. A NOTE ON DEEP TONED BELLS: SETH THOMAS SONORAS WERE OUTFITTED WITH THREE SIZES OF SONORA BELLS: SMALL BELLS, MEDIUM 2 7/8 INCH DIAMETER RESONATED BELLS, AND LARGE 3 1/4 INCH DIAMETER DEEP TONED BELLS. EXAMPLES INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING: THE SONORA 55 AND 255 ARE EQUIPPED WITH SMALL BELLS; THE SONORA 61, 261, 64 AND 264 WERE OUTFITTED WITH MEDIUM 2 7/8 INCH RESONATED BELLS; THE SONORA 2000, AND SEVERAL OTHER OF THE MOST EXPENSIVE SONORAS, WERE FITTED WITH THE LARGE 3 1/4 INCH DEEP TONED BELLS. THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE IN THE PURE LISTENING PRESENCE GIVEN BY THE SONORA 2000 WITH THE DEEP TONED NEST OF BELLS. BY ALL MEANS TAKE A LISTEN AND HEAR FOR YOURSELF. I RECENTLY FINISHED THE RESTORATION OF THIS SONORA AND WOULD LOVE TO KEEP IT PERMANENTLY WITH MY PERSONAL COLLECTION, BUT I FEEL THAT SOMEONE ON EBAY WILL DESIRE THIS LOVELY SHOW PIECE; AND I ALREADY HAVE SELECTED SONORAS, ALTHOUGH NOT QUITE AS FINE AS THIS ONE OFFERED TO YOU TODAY. IF YOU HAVE ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OR NEED MORE DETAILS, BY ALL MEANS CONTACT ME. THE SONORA CHIME CLOCK NO. 2000 IS LISTED IN NOTED AUTHORITY TRAN DUY LY’S VOLUME 1, 3D EDITION PAGE 160. 1914 WAS THE DATE OF FIRST APPEARANCE IN THE SETH THOMAS CATALOGS. EVERY ASPECT OF THE SONORA 2000 HAS BEEN RESTORED TO ORIGINAL SPECIFICATIONS, INCLUDING THE NEST OF EIGHT DEEP TONED SONORA BELLS. THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE ONE OF SETH THOMAS’ FINEST SONORA BELL ANTIQUE CLOCKS AND YOU CAN BE ASSURED OF THE QUALITY, BECAUSE MY PERSONAL OBJECTIVE, AS ALWAYS, IS TO EXCEED YOUR EXPECTATIONS! ANYONE WHO DESIRES SHOULD FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME AND I WILL BE HAPPY TO DISCUSS DETAILS OF THE SONORA 2000, AS WELL AS DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE VARIOUS SONORAS IN GENERAL. PLEASE STUDY THE SUPERSIZE HIGH RESOLUTION PHOTOS TO REVIEW ALL ASPECTS OF THE SONORA CHIME 2000. THE WINDING HOLE NEAR THE “8” IS FOR THE HOUR COUNT CHIME; THE ONE NEAR THE “4” IS FOR THE TIME TRAIN. BOTH THE HOUR COUNT AND TIME TRAIN ARE HANDLED BY THE NO. 89X MOVEMENT. ANOTHER HOLE AT THE “3” IS FOR WINDING THE QUARTER-HOUR WESTMINSTER AND WHITTINGTON CHIMES, HANDLED BY THE NO. 104E MOVEMENT. A SMALLER HOLE BELOW THE HAND SHAFT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DIAL IS FOR ACCESSING THE SLOW-FAST TIME ADJUSTMENT. A SLIDE LEVER ON THE SIDE OF THE CASE IS FOR CHIME-SILENT OPERATION. WHEN OPERATED, THE QUARTER HOUR CHIMES WILL BE SILENCED. THE TOP LEFT SUBSIDIARY DIAL WILL SILENCE THE HOUR STRIKE IF DESIRED. THE TOP RIGHT SUBSIDIARY PROVIDES FOR SELECTION BETWEEN WHITTINGTON AND WESTMINSTER CHIMES. THE DIAL IS LARGE AND CAN BE VIEWED WITH EASE IN A LARGE ROOM OR VENUE. THE 89X MOVEMENT HANDLES THE TIME AND HOUR STRIKE FUNCTIONS AND THE 104E MOVEMENT HANDLES THE QUARTER HOUR FUNCTIONS. EACH QUARTER HOUR SEQUENCE IS SOUNDED ON THE DEEP TONED BELLS WITH RICH HARMONICS, TIMBRE AND LINGERING DECAY WHEN STRUCK. THE WHITTINGTON MELODY SEQUENCES ARE SOUNDED OUT USING ALL EIGHT SONORA BELLS, AND THE WESTMINSTER SEQUENCE IS SOUNDED OF FOUR OF THE BELLS. THE HOUR COUNT ON BOTH WHITTINGTON AND WESTMINSTER IS SOUNDED AS A FULL BODIED MUSICAL NOTE ON DEEP TONED BELL NUMBER 8. PLEASE MAKE IT A POINT TO LISTEN AND CAREFULLY REVIEW THE ATTACHED SOUND FILES IN ORDER TO FULLY APPRECIATE WHY OWNERS APPRECIATED THEIR NEW AND, AT THE TIME, VERY EXPENSIVE 8 BELL DEEP TONED BELL SONORA 2000 CLOCKS. ALSO INCLUDED IS THE ORIGINALLY ISSUED “BOY ON A FENCE” PENDULUM BOB AND A CORRECT BRASS DOUBLE ENDED KEY. RESTORATION AND TECHNICAL DETAILS PLEASE OBSERVE THAT NEARLY HALF OF MY LISTING PORTFOLIO CONTAINS INFORMATION ABOUT THE MECHANICAL ASPECTS AND MOVEMENT RESTORATIONS YOU DESERVE, AND SHOULD EXPECT, A RESTORED ANTIQUE SETH OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY AND RELIABILITY.I STRIVE TO EXCEED YOUR EXPECTATIONS RATHER THAN SIMPLY SELL YOU AN ANTIQUE CLOCK. THE NEST OF SONORA BELLS THE RESTORATION PROCESS INCLUDED COMPLETE DISASSEMBLY AND INSPECTION OF EVERY ASPECT OF THE CLOCK. THE SONORA CHIME BELLS AND CHIME BLOCK ASSEMBLY WERE CAREFULLY DISASSEMBLED, CLEANED TO RESTORE THE RESONANT TIMBRE OF THE SONORA BELLS, AND EXAMINED FOR CONDITION TO INSURE THE ABSENCE OF HAIRLINE CRACKS, ETC. SUPERSIZE PHOTO 10 SHOWS THE BELL NEST WITH SOUND CAVITIES THAT CAN BE SEEN ON THE END OF THE WOODEN NEST. CAREFUL INSPECTION OF THE BELLS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: · ONE HAIRLINE CRACK CAN CAUSE A SONORA BELL TO LOSE ALL TONE AND TIMBRE, AND THE BEGINNING OF A HAIRLINE WILL ALMOST ALWAYS GROW TO A FULL HAIRLINE CRACK. · IN ADDITION, OTHER ISSUES WITH CRACKED, BROKEN, OR DETERIORATED WOODEN AND PRESSED FELT BELL SPACERS, USED TO SEPARATE THE BELLS, WILL IMPACT THE SOUND, YET CANNOT BE DETECTED BY CASUAL INSPECTION. · THE ONLY WAY TO ASSURE YOURSELF OF NOT BECOMING VICTIM TO PROBLEMS IS VIA FULL AUTHENTICATION OF THE COMPONENTS, WHICH IS MY PLEDGE TO YOU, THE BUYER. MOVEMENTS - #89X AND #104E BOTH THE 89X TIME AND HOUR STRIKE MOVEMENT, AND THE 104E SONORA CHIME MOVEMENTS WERE DISASSEMBLED, CLEANED WITH ULTRASONICS, INSPECTED IN DETAIL FOR CONDITION OF THE PIVOT BUSHINGS, GEAR TRAIN, AND ARBOR OR PIVOT ABNORMALITIES. OUT OF TOLERANCE BUSHINGS WERE REPLACED. EVERY OPERATIONAL ASPECT OF EACH MOVEMENT WAS ADDRESSED. THE MOVEMENTS WERE THEN REASSEMBLED AND PROPERLY LUBRICATED; BOTH MAINSPRINGS IN THE 89X WERE REPLACED WITH NEW HIGHEST GRADE 120 INCH MAINSPRINGS, NOT THE LOWER QUALITY 96 INCH KIND THAT ARE MUCH LESS EXPENSIVE. THE GREAT MAINSPRING IN THE 104E WAS REMOVED FROM ITS RETAINING BARREL, FULLY UNWOUND, PROPERLY CLEANED, INSPECTED, REWOUND, AND LUBRICATED WITH MAINSPRING INDUSTRUAL GRADE LUBRICANT. REPLACEMENT OF THE 120 INCH #104 MAINSPRING IS NEITHER RECOMMENDED NOR REQUIRED, AS LONG AS THE EXISTING MAINSPRING EXCEEDS SPECIFICATIONS, AS THIS ONE DOES. A NEW MANUFACTURE REPLACEMENT MAINSPRING TO FIT THE #104 HAS DIFFERENT STRENGTH AND TORQUE CHARACTERISTICS FROM THE ORIGINAL, AND MAY CREATE EXCESSIVE FORCES WITHIN THE MOVEMENT. IMPORTANT: THERE ARE SEVERAL SCARCE ITEMS OF THE #104E MOVEMENT. PAY SPECIAL NOTICE TO THESE THREE CRITICAL COMPONENTS: THE GREAT WHEEL GEAR, THE SECOND WHEEL GEAR WITH PINION, AND THE CHIME DRUM THAT SYNCHRONIZES AND DRIVES THE CHIME HAMMERS. IF ANY OF THESE COMPONENTS IS ABOUT TO FAIL, IT MAY NOT BE OBVIOUS. WHEN IT OCCURS, THE COST TO REPAIR WILL GIVE YOU A JOLT, BECAUSE THERE ARE NONE IN SUPPLY CHANNELS; ANOTHER MOVEMENT WILL BE REQUIRED. THAT IS WHY I ALWAYS MAKE SURE THESE CRITICAL COMPONENTS ARE IN TOP CONDITION ON MY RESTORED SETH SONORA CLOCKS. GOOD COUNSEL ON A CONTEMPLATED 8 BELL SONORA ACQUISITION WOULD BE: IF ONE ELECTS TO PURCHASE A SONORA OF UNKNOWN CONDITION – EVEN IF WORKING, BY ALL MEANS HOPE FOR THE BEST, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, BE PREPARED FOR PROBLEMS, SUBSEQUENT OPERATIONAL ISSUES AND EXTREME FRUSTRATION, AS WELL AS CONSIDERABLE EXPENSE. JUST LISTEN TO THE ATTACHED SOUND FILES FOR AN ACCURATE RENDERING OF THE CLARITY, RESONANCE, TONE DEPTH, TEMPO AND RICH DECAY OF EACH NOTE STRUCK WHEN THE SONORA 2000 CHIMES AND STRIKES THE HOUR. AFTER REASSAMBLY, APPROPRIATE ADJUSTMENTS FOR TIME, CHIME, HOUR STRIKE, SYNCHRONIZATION PENDULUM RATE AND BEAT ERROR ETC. WERE ACCOMPLISHED USING MECHANICAL AND ELECTRONIC MEANS. AN EXTENDED BENCH RUN TEST FOLLOWED. SEVERAL PHOTOS OF THE RESTORATION WORK ARE PART OF THE PORTFOLIO. ADDITIONAL TECHNICAL INFORMATION: · AS PART OF THE TESTS AND ADJUSTMENTS PROCEDURES ON THE #89X MOVEMENT, THE PENDULUM BEAT ERROR AND THE PENDULUM BEAT RATE ARE CHECKED AND SET - AN OBJECTIVE OF NEAR ZERO FOR BEAT ERROR IS DESIRED. THIS RESTORED 89X MOVEMENT ADJUSTED TO ZERO ERROR AND STABILIZED AT ZERO ERROR. THIS ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE IS HIGHLIGHTED IN PHOTO 11. · FOR PENDULUM BEAT RATE, THE 89X IS DESIGNED TO RUN AT 9,777 BEATS PER HOUR. THE RESTORED MOVEMENT EASILY HELD THE 9,777 BEAT RATE, MEANING THE TIME KEEPING WILL BE DEPENDABLE AND THE MOVEMENT WILL GIVE RELIABLE SERVICE. IN FACT, BOTH MOVEMENTS IN THE SONORA 2000 WERE RESTORED TO SUPERIOR CONDITIION. THE PENDULUM BEAT RATE ADJUSTMENT IS ALSO HIGHLIGHTED IN SUPERSIZE PHOTO 11. · THE PENDULUM SWING ARC OF THE RESTORED 89X FRONT MOVEMENT IS A FULL 3 1/2 INCHES, VERY ROBUST AND EXCEEDING ORIGINAL SPECIFICATIONS. A HEALTY PENDULUM SWING IS A POSITIVE INDICATOR OF A HEALTY MOVEMENT THAT HAS VERY LITTLE FRICTION AND LOTS OF ENERGY. BEWARE OF A #89X MOVEMENT WITH A PENDULUM AMPLITUDE OF 2 ½ INCHES OR LESS – A SIGN OF POOR MOVEMENT HEALTH. THE FULL RESTORATION OF A SETH THOMAS 8 BELL SERIES 2000 SONORA, AS DESCRIBED ABOVE, IS AN $1,500 VALUE IN AND OF ITSELF. IF YOU PURCHASE A SETH THOMAS 8 DEEP TONED BELL SONORA BELL CLOCK OF UNKNOWN OPERATIONAL RELIABILITY, A TRIP THE CLOCK DOCTOR IS LIKELY AND COSTLY. WHY NOT PURCHASE ONE THAT YOU CAN DEPEND ON FROM THE GET GO! THE SONORA CHIME NO. 2000 - 1912 WILL BE THE CENTER-PIECE OF A GRAND DECORATIVE SETTING, AND IT IS AN EXCELLENT INVESTMENT, BECAUSE ITS VALUE WILL CONTINUE TO APPRECIATE YEAR AFTER YEAR. THIS IS A LARGE FULL SIZE CATHEDRAL SONORA CHIME CLOCK, SUITABLE FOR MANTLE, TABLE, OR SHELF DISPLAY - A MEMORABLE PRESENT FOR SOMEONE SPECIAL, YOUR PERSONAL USE, OR AS AN ADDITION TO YOUR COLLECTION. MEASUREMENTS ARE 12 ½” W X 16 ½”H X 9 ¼” D. WORKMANSHIP AND QUALITY – ALL OF MY SETH THOMAS ANTIQUE CLOCKS ARE FULLY RESTORED IN EVERY WAY UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED OTHERWISE. GREAT CARE IS TAKEN TO INSURE THAT EACH AND EVERY ONE FUNCTIONS PROPERLY, IS FULLY OPERATIONAL, MEETS OR EXCEEDS ORIGINAL PERFORMANCE SPECS, AND IS BENCH TESTED WHEN SHIPPED. MY SINCERE HOPE IS TO EXCEED YOUR EXPECTATIONS IN EVERY WAY. AS WITH ALL MECHANICAL CLOCK MOVEMENTS, SOME ADJUSTMENTS MAY BE NECESSARY WHEN SETTING UP AFTER SHIPMENT, AND THE CLOCK IS SOLD AS IS. ENJOY THE LISTING – IF YOU NEED OR DESIRE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, I INVITE YOU TO BE IN TOUCH – STEVE.

8 Day Miniature English William Congreve Rolling Ball Clock with Marble Base
MINIATURE CONGREVE ROLLING BALL 8 DAY WORLD SMALLEST MINI CONGREVE ROLLING BALL CLOCK Here is a beautiful miniature Congreve rolling ball clock. This one is the SMALLEST you can find. Don't settle for anything in the middle, either go big or small. The first Congreve clock is invented by an English - Sir W. Congreve in 1808 and it's valued over $10,000 if you can find one. This one comes with a solid marble display base and protective dome. The glass dome has solid brass frames. The clock is made of heavy solid brass. The time shows on 3 separated porcelain dials - second, minute, and hour. The clock is driven by a double spring movement. It is really fun to watch this clock running. It has an 8 DAY movement. The bigger version from our competitor wouldn't even run 8 days. Our smallest 8 day Congreve clock will really amazes any guests in your home or shop. The small steel ball is rolling back and forth on the lower platform with a zigzag track. When the ball reaches the end of the table, it triggers the lever and the platform instantly tilts. Then the steel ball starts to roll back to the other end. It takes the steel ball 12 seconds to roll from one side to the other.

Stunning William Thornhill & Co. Antique "Heathen Chinee" Clock, SEE VIDEO!!
eBay Up for sale is a rare William Thornhill & Co. of London 8 day clock from the mid to late 19th century. The case is expertly hand carved out of a stunning solid piece of oak in the form of a Chinese warrior. The movement is of French origin and an 8 day wind dating 1850's. Marked "VAP" (Velonge a Paris) indicates the craftsman was living in Paris in in the mid 1800's, trade mark 'Brevette" used by French makers such as Japy. The movement has been properly maintained, serviced and because of that, is in 100% working condition keeping time flawlessly over the course of 8 days on a single full wind. All pieces are original with nothing replaced, I just had this clock's movement fully dismantled, cleaned and oiled by one of the best clock makers in the South East United States. Antique William Thornhill Antique Clock, Rare English Clock c.1880 - YouTube Video will open in a new windowUsing the eBay App? Paste link into a browser window: [isdntekvideo] The blue willow style dial was made specifically for this clock and was not made from a plate or bowl. The dial is in good condition with minor stress cracks with mild staining where the screws are inserted caused from being over tightened at some point and a crack that runs along the bottom horizontally across the face. The dial is fully intact as the crack does not run through.The wood carved case is just visually stunning as you can see from the photos which accurately depicts its unique beauty. The height of the entire clock is approximately 14 inches tall, base measures 9 x 4 inches and the diameter of the blue willow dial is 7 inches.On the front of the base is a silver etched plaque that read, "Xmas 1880" not only dating it, but indicating the fact it was given as a Christmas gift by a wealthy individual. On the reverse of the base is a brass tag that reads "W. Thornhill & Co. 144 New Bond St.". Under the face of the dial in the warriors robes is carved "Heathen Chinee" which may be some type of commemorative to the poem by Bret Harte.Their are two repairs to the wood case one to the warrior's right hand which has been re-attached (old repair) as seen in the 10th photo provided and a piece of his right mustache which appears to be an old repair. The case and movement are both in overall just stunning condition! This is an incredible opportunity to own such a rare clock from the scarcely seen maker William Thornhill & Co. of London.William Thornill & Co. became famous for the cutlery during the 18th century as they supplied the royal family with their dining wear. Their clocks are rarely seen as their held in private collections and in the ownerships of museums. Two Thornhill & Co's clocks have been referenced to residing in the ownership of the royal family in Windsor Castle!This clock has been held in a private collection for the last 60 years and this is its first time available to the market. To my knowledge this has never been seen or published in any catalogue or reference material to date. No other similar clock has been known to be manufactured by William Thornhill & Co. and their is not a single clock that even closely resembles the craft mans ship and beauty of this rare English clock.If you have any questions please feel free to ask, thanks for looking and good luck!Thank you for visiting Henning Fine Art's online gallery here on eBay!

How to start an automatic watch?It’s very important to wind an automatic watch properly, prior to its use. The initial wind provided may only last a short while, making the watch appear defective once it stops ticking. To ensure your watch functions to the fullest of its capabilities, wait for it to stop and then wind the watch counter clockwise 15-20 times. Next, push the crown back, screwing it down to preserve the water resistance *Be mindful that excessively winding the watch may cause damages to the movement, so don’t overdo it. Unlike self-winding watches, the crown doesn't need to be wound on quartz models. If it still isn’t ticking, simply bring it by for a battery replacement.Why the watch is running slow?A watch can lose time for various reasons including, but not limited to a dying battery, which will cause the second-hand to begin jumping across several seconds at once instead of passing each individually, magnetization, causing tension between small parts within the movement and natural friction from the watch being worn. If the watch is a mechanical model (Automatic or Manual-wind) this can also be a sign that the watch needs to be overhauled.How to use a chronograph Operating a Chronograph requires using the pushers on the side of the case. The top pusher is used to start and stop the chronograph hand while the one at the bottom is used to reset it. Once the top pusher is pressed, the hand will run continuously, which you can track using the accompanying sub-dial. In order to reset the chronograph, it has to be stopped first. Otherwise the button will do nothing when pressed.How to set the date & time?Whether you have a screw or push-down crown, setting the date and time is simple. If its a screw-down, unscrew it by turning it downward, prior to following these steps. Pull out the crown to the first integer to operate the date alone, allowing the time to continue ticking. Pulling the crown out farther, you’re then allowed to adjust the time, which also shifts the date after each 24-hour cycle. Once you have your watch set, simply push the crown back in all the way and screw it fully closed to preserve its water resistance *Do not change the date when the watch is between 10PM-2AM because the movement can be damaged.How to ensure the watch is waterproof?For a watch, water is the worst enemy. To make sure you protect your watch properly check these factors before wearing it. First, see what kind of crown you have. If it is a push-down crown the watch is definitely not waterproof, but water resistant If the watch has a screw-down crown, then it may be waterproof, but you should check your model’s specifications to be sure. *Most importantly, no matter what kind of crown you have, you should check the watch for damages to the case, which will allow water to reach the movement regardless of whether the crown is closed or not. However, if you have any doubts, its best to have the watch water-tested, which will give you a conclusive result.

Reproduction Simon Willard Lighthouse Clock-Weight Driven w/ Passing Strike
eBay Rarely up for sale in the clock collector market and for your bidding consideration, is this Reproduction Simon Willard Lighthouse Clock. It has an 8 day weight driven passing strike movement. This fine Willard reproduction stands 33.5 inches tall with the glass dome in place and 9" in diameter. There is a brass tag on the rear access door that states "Simon Roxbury Willard". The lighthouse clock is made of a mahogany veneered case in three sections with an eight-sided base. It has an applied gilded ormolu wreath and applied center Caduceus (appears to be) and removable back door on 4 wooden ball feet. The clock is in overall excellent condition and is running and keeping time properly. As with any weight driven or mechanical movements, it is being sold as is with the understanding that the movement may need adjusting after a move. Being a collector of clocks for 30+ years, I've rarely had to adjust the weight driven movements after being moved. Careful handling and care should avoid that possibility. I am unsure of the year the clock was made but I'm going to date it to the late 1970's/1980's. If any of my fellow collectors have a better idea on its age, please email me and I'll update if necessary. It's not often that a reproduction weight driven Simon Willard lighthouse clock comes onto the market. When you consider that a real deal Simon Willard Lighthouse clock sells in the 10s of thousands of dollars, this is a great affordable alternative for the discerning collector. Successful buyer is responsible for paying for and arranging safe insured shipping of this clock from my location to theirs. Will work with the buyer with their shipping arrangements. This is a fine and quality weight driven lighthouse clock for the avid collector out there. Payment in full must be made prior to release of the clock. Thanks and please take a moment to view my other auctions. (Condition: Pre-Owned)

Large Mystery 8 DAY Fusee Chain English Congreve Rolling Ball Clock
CONGREVE ROLLING BALL CLOCK with Mystery 8 DAY Fusee Chain English Congreve Rolling Ball Clock Here is a beautiful mystery Congreve rolling ball clock. The original clock is invented by an English - Sir W. Congreve in 1808 and it's valued over $40,000 if you can find one. This one comes with a matching display stand and protective dome. The glass dome has solid brass frames. You may have found similar clocks with a screw holding glass domes. That kind of glass dome is just about to fall apart anytime. On the other hand, all parts on our clock and dome are made of solid brass. And our glass dome even has a front door, which allows you to wind the clock safely without lifting up the heavy glass dome. The clock is made of heavy solid brass as well. The time shows on 3 separated porcelain dials - second, minute, and hour. It's 3-1/2" in the center and 2-1/4" dials on each side. The clock is driven by a fusee chain movement. It is really fun to watch this clock running. It has an 8 day movement. The small steel ball is rolling back and forth on the lower platform with a zigzag track. When the ball reaches the end of the table, it triggers the lever and the platform instantly tilts. Then the steel ball starts to roll back to the other end. It takes the steel ball 30 seconds to roll from one side to the other. The complete clock is 19" tall and 15-3/4" by 15-1/4" wide. This clock comes with a adjustable display stand, so the clock will work perfectly even the surface is not. For the safety of this clock, the glass case will be shipped disassembled.
