SOLD $2,200.00 Sold: Oct 10, 2023 on eBayOriginal Listing Description
Selling a very rare Alarm Banjo clock made by Joseph Dyar Middlebury Vt. about 1825. Tablets are probably not original to the clock, but very nice. The name on the dial is light but readable Joseph Dyar Middlebury Vt. The outside lever on the alarm side looks to be a replacement but seems to be accurate for this movement. There are many weight driven banjo clocks but to get a Joseph Dyar with the alarm feature is very rare . I will ship the weight separately in order to protect the clock.I added some pictures of the movement, because a number of people wanted to see more details. hope this is able to help. also someone asked about a second weight for the alarm, both the alarm and the time is running off the same weight. hope this answers all the questions, if not please ask. I know it is an expensive clock.I want the winning bidder be happy with the clock. (Condition: Pre-Owned)
