SOLD $999.00 Sold: Feb 26, 2024 on eBayOriginal Listing Description
German Black Forest CHALET 8 Day Mechanical Musical Animated Cuckoo Clock Festival theme with 4 couples dancing on bottom spinning around, Musicians on left bottom move back and forth, upper level has children dancing in pairs as they round inside the clock, on side is a beer keg, pole with flags, water spout keg, a bench, and farm gear. Pine tree on right behind dancers, and snow rocks adorn the top. Has a floral hand painted pendelum, 3 pine cone weights, each weighs 1500, and all brass hardware. D Hones Mechanics and Swiss made musical movement (Bayrischer Lander & Kuckuck Walzer 3889)My best guess this was made in the 1980sWARNING, All Pieces present, clock is working, has been to the Clock Expert, and cleaned and oiled. I am not sure what got out of wack, but it all worked, it Needs a knowing hand to properly mount and get moving after shipment. This clock must be hung exactly on the correct bolt into your wall, and leveled, I recommend an expert to hang this and set the time and make sure all is working correctly before he/she leaves. I have been back and forth with having the chains re-strung, cleaning, buying oil, replacing missing parts, and I can only say, it has lots and lots of tiny adjustments, that unless you're willing to put hours and hours into, find a good expert. ALWAYS have it cleaned and serviced, and take good care of your clock, no little hands pulling on the chains. 17" across top x 15" tall x 9" depth, weights will ship in a second box (Condition: Pre-Owned)
