SOLD $1,395.00 Sold: Jun 21, 2024 on eBayOriginal Listing Description
CHIME CLOCK NO. 64 5-BELLS - 1914 For offer and making a scarce appearance is this beautiful Seth Thomas Chime Clock No. 64 that was produced in the year of 1914. The original finish on the Mahogany wood case is leathered and in great condition as the pictures will show. Both movements have high polished brass plates that was difficult to take pictures and not show my reflection in them. Equipped with a strong, smooth running rebuilt 89AG movement that has been keeping excellent time for the past few weeks along with a rebuilt 90B Sonora movement that is functioning properly, will assure many more years of dependable enjoyment. All the best features are on this model. Dark, Arabic numbers on a 6-inch silvered dial that can be clearly seen from a distance. Blue steel spade shaped hour and minute hands. Shaded marqueterie (inlaid) at the top and below the dial with streamers outlining the entire front of the case and along the front and sides of the base. Brass bun feet at each corner bearing their original finish. A small scratch on the original convex beveled glass is hardly noticeable between the 5 and 6. The machined clasp brass bezel and the back door with a cloth backing allowing the beautiful bells to resonate throughout your house which has a small tear, opens and closes properly as they should. This model is equipped with 5-Sonora patented resonated bells with silent chime lever which you can see and hear each quarter hour followed by the full Westminster chime with hour strike in the video provided. The original pendulum bob and the original two-sided key come with the clock. Being a model that is not seen often and having the original bob and key make this clock very desirable and highly sought after. Every aspect of this clock is fully functional. What I do to ensure you are buying a quality clock. Ø Disassemble the entire clock and movements myself completely. Ø Bush all worn pivot holes with Burgeon bronze bushings as needed. All holes bushed on movement and all except the load gear bushed on the Sonora movement. Ø Clean the entire movement ultrasonically. Ø Clean the original dial being careful not to alter its original condition. If the dial is to far gone, it will be professionally silvered and restored back to Seth Thomas dial specifications. Ø Clean bezel, parts and chime rods by hand. Ø Clean the outside of the original finish by hand with mild cleaners as well as the inside and apply a coat of wax by hand. Ø I will never alter the finish or farm out the clock not knowing what is being done to the clock. This does decrease the value of a clock. Ø Reassemble the clock, oil and lube in the proper places. Ø Adjust chime and strike hammer sequence properly to assure smooth and even strikes at each quarter-hour and hour. Ø Electronically regulate the beat and adjust the speed while the clock is level to ensure accuracy for many generations. Ø Inspect and adjust every minor detail of the clock assuring full function and peak performance for many years to come. Ø Test the clock for a minimum of two weeks to ensure peak and proper performance for the new owner. Ø Smoke free, pet free home. All clocks are cleaned removing odors. Ø Instructions for set up provided, contact number for on going support and discounted maintenance or repair for your clock. This is a full size chime clock that measures 14” H x 10” W x 8” D that will give your home a sense of warmth and charm complimenting any rooms décor with its beauty and sound. This clock will be a wonderful addition to your home furniture and will appreciate in value over the years. Buy it for that special someone, a wedding gift, Father’s Day is just around the corner, or even for your own collection to pass on to future generations. Your clock will be carefully packed and shipped out via FedEx Ground/Home Delivery in the continental United States only. Because of the size and value, FedEx Ground/Home Delivery will be charged at a flat rate of only $55.00. Insurance, signature required and delivery confirmation is included in the flat rate and will be insured at the actual selling price. This clock will be sold as is and the seller has the right to end the auction at any time. I try to have a new listing every week so check back frequently for more restored, hard to find Seth Thomas antique mantel clocks and assorted parts. Please check out my feedback, email me with any questions, check out my other clocks that I may have listed on ebay and I thank you for looking.NAWCC Member No. 0171477 (Condition: Refurbished)
