I am a clock collector and am interested in a broad range. Favourites, however, are:
* antique cuckoo clocks, Black Forest quails, musical, automata, etc
* French perpetual calendar clocks
* Vitascope electric clocks
* Semi-Perpetual calendar clocks
* Chiming clocks, but with rarer chimes
* Musical clocks, but preferably antique ones
* Some anniversary clocks
* Alarm clocks with automata on dial
* Bracket clocks with rarer chimes

Perpetual Calendar Clock
มุมมอง 1K9 ปีที่แล้ว
This is fitted with a large S Marti et Cie movement and has been largely overhauled and restored over the years since I won it at auction in 2007. It comes with provenance! A silvered plaque detailing whose clock it was on presentation and a large book detailing that this clock and a bag of New mercury vials for the pendulum bob have been fitted. Hopefully the calendar will now account for shor...
HAC Art Deco Grand Daughter Clock

Comes with a double-ended key for winding and also for regulating purposes.
Gufa Triple-Chime Mantel Clock
มุมมอง 6K9 ปีที่แล้ว
From the 1930s-40s and has a really useful wheel mounted on the pendulum crutch to assist more safely with putting in beat. The gong rods also have a comb arrangement that, when activated by a lever, arrest the gong rods to assist with safer transportation.

British Manufacture - Newhaven Trademark. Perhaps someone can confirm which company made the clock and that it is American, please.
Hermle Ship's Bells Clock
มุมมอง 9K9 ปีที่แล้ว
Clock has now been mounted onto a modern cheese board. Ship's bells are great, but going is problematic and probably needs a good overhaul. The strike can be silenced and there is provision for adjustment to timekeeping on the dial also.
Swiss Striking Strut Clock
มุมมอง 7059 ปีที่แล้ว
The clock is fitted with what I assume to be a pocket watch movement as it's so small and the gong strike is not loud at all. The overall look and especially the hands probably date the clock to the Art Deco period. A clock worthy of restoration and runs for 8 days.
HAC Westminster Chime Clock
มุมมอง 2.3K9 ปีที่แล้ว
Fairly rare '2-holer', or 2-train, Westminster chiming clock. The clock works, but the chime and strike do not. This clock I believe to be worthy of an overhaul. The chime drum shifts inward when it prepares to strike the hour. This is spring-loaded and is activated with a cam.
Zenith Calendar Clock
มุมมอง 2919 ปีที่แล้ว
This is a project and requires overhaul. Does anyone know what coinage it can take now to keep the clock ticking? Does anyone know how to manually adjust, quickly, the calendar dial?
8-Day Onyx-Effect Mantel Clock
มุมมอง 3849 ปีที่แล้ว
The case is faux-onyx. The movement is a good German one which runs for 8 days. The bezel opens from the front to adjust the hands, but also has a knob at the back for adjusting them.
Vedette Westminster Chiming Clock

Only real issue is the continuous strike. Can't be sure what is causing this till we get serious hands-on.

Trenkle Uhren Mini Longcase Clock
มุมมอง 34K9 ปีที่แล้ว
I bought this from my penfriend in America. I love the colour of it - my favourite - and it runs for approximately 24 hours on one winding. I remember a friend had a white one in the 70s, again with pink roses. They were sold by Woolworths. There are better quality ones by other makers which run for 8 days, again as mini longcase clocks.
Gustav Becker Grandmother Clock
มุมมอง 155K9 ปีที่แล้ว
I won this clock at auction recently here in Scotland. It's my second, but have sold my 1st to make way for this one. This one's case is in good condition and retains its original patina. The movement has been overhauled recently. I dare say the dial and hands could be restored later as they show signs of wear and fading. One intriguing thing about this clock is that, even though it can be sile...

Enfield Striking Clock

I'm pretty sure this is an Enfield product, most probably from the 1930s, in good overall condition for its age. The pendulum is most unusual and do believe it to be original.

Congrats!💯
Me too
Thanks. This one was sold ages ago.

Notes QUARTERS B D# G# F# C# Hour E♭
Love this!
So beautiful!
love it!
This is one of those New haven movements with british assembly and case! I have one which needs a new movement
gorgeous - I love it!
Yes it is the East German version of the Whittington chime
we need an update video
Do you know the year when this clock was produced? I got the same now and can't find out. Please help 🙏 thx
'fraid not. They're still relatively modern and are not highly regarded. The plates are rather thin.
love this.
Where do I find this grandmother clock?
In my house, but is not for sale. If you want one like it, I suggest you set up Alerts on English and German auction house sites. Tip: don't be too specific, i.e. input something like: Grandfather clock, Grandmother clock, Westminster/Whittington chime. Gustav Becker I'd suggest is far too specific and most auctioneers won't know this level of detail.
@@gaiuscoleman8815 I see. Thank you, though
Beautiful sound. I remember this video from a while back.
Ddid you have any photos of the case? Thanks
I could supply these, but clock is sold and I'd need your e-mail address.
Hi is it for sale?
It could be but would need to do a Condition Report on it. However I won't ship abroad.
@@gaiuscoleman8815 I understand
Do you know how to disassemble as the face plate on mine has delaminated from the clock
Definitely not. I wouldn't dare try.
2:18
sounds llike the gustav becker clocks
Only that the chime is different
0:13
Beautiful clock!!!
Do you still have it? I think it a grandfather clock!
No, defo grandmother and so is my newest one to replace it.
Oops, this IS the new one above.
@@gaiuscoleman8815 oh nice 👍
Question: why does the chime strike so fast at 1:00?
This could be because fly is adjusted to make it go that fast. The vanes of the fly could be splayed out more. Clock sold ages ago.
@@gaiuscoleman8815 ah, I see. Hope it’s doing well!
@@Benicio_Fols I hope so too, wherever it is, but this one is sold. I have replaced it with another done, very similar, but with circular dial and its strike is at least twice as slow.
Hi, I have one of these clocks. Anyone know if it’s worth anything? It works.
I’ve got one that runs about 5 min slow every 24 hours and I’m not sure how to use the adjustment on the back. And advise?
😂
Wow that’s a great sound
I’m 100 percent sure that screen is pretty bright without featuring HDR Option
You got new clocks to show?
Not really anything of note.
An amazing sound. Great. There is no better Whittington sound than Gustav Becker's special. You have one of the finest Grandfather clocks that is ever availible. But with new leather on the hammers, the clock would sound even softer and fuller.
Thanx.
@@gaiuscoleman8815 👌👍
La Paimpolaise
My clock is set for New York time at the top. When I start looking at other cities, they are all off by an hour, except London and Paris. From Cairo and On, it’s all off by an hour. I understand how to read and set this clock, I was just looking up different time today and seen this issue. Would you happen know?
No, sorry.
Chime starts at 0:45.
0:18 The rack drops earlier than usual. Most of the time, you would hear the rack drop after 3/4 into the hour melody, not after 1/4.
Hurrah! what a beautiful clock and how pleasant is the melody played by built in music-box!
J aime beaucoup la mélodie winginton je pense que c est un 12 tiges et 12 marteaux
Merci. La melodie s'appelle Elite Whittington. C'est 12 tiges et 12 marteaux.
J ai le même carillon de la marque vedette sauf le son n es pas le même mais il est joli
Jolie son quand il sonne les heures
Merci beaucoup.
@@gaiuscoleman8815 avec plaisir je savais pas que tu parlais français
@@gaiuscoleman8815 tu aurais Messenger WhatsApp s'il te plaît
@@iloveservis1609 yes, I'm on Whatsapp
Ok donné moi votre numéro de téléphone svp
W,hats wrong chime's
What is that +/- switch by the I digit?
It controls the clock speed by making it run faster or slower
Beautiful
I Have a similar clock with an oval porcelain dial. its working fine. just got it restored. i need to know more about this unique movement. any place i can find the details / history
my gran has one but the escapement stops swinging after a few seconds
so did gustav becker have a different whittington chime?
Yes, the Elite Whittington apparently.
@@gaiuscoleman8815 kwhawell has a video of a Gustav Becker Mantel clock that does the regular whittington chimes (US variant).
@@andreasjoannai6441 Thanks. taken a quick look. If you can further 'name' the video feed, I'll go straight to it and listen, please.
