Don't settle for imitators who pretend to provide the same level of quality service - thanks for choosing ProClocksThis large carved column 8 Day 3 Weight Vienna Regulator, circa 1885, was made in Germany, and sold by Gustav Becker. It measures a very large 51 x 16 inches. There are extensively carved columns on the front door and side glass panels to see the movement and pendulum from the side of the case. The clock has a large 6 1/2 inch diameter arabic numeral dial with highly engraved dial insert which matches the three weights and large pendulum bob. You can see the movement gears through the glass sides of the case, and its three brass weights/brass pendulum under the dial. The signed Gustav Becker serial number 504599, is a solid brass plate movement eight day running, with chimes on each quarter hour, also with the hour strike every quarter hour, referred to as a Grand Sonnerie Chime. It is running and chiming striking and striking on each of the quarters, but could use adjusting. It has a pendulum indicator. (BEWARE Note: this clock is an original 1885-95 clock, not one of the brand new reproduction clocks made in china and being sold as authentic antique clocks that are supposedly refurbished by a California ebay clock seller. This California dealer states that his clock is a new case with original movement signed by Gustav Becker and is refurbished, but all of their movements have the same serial numbers, and some of them he has covered the pictures of the serial numbers on their movements so you cannot see them in the picture. And his clocks are selling for $2550-$3500, a ridiculous amount for a fake antique clock!
