  • It does say Emperor on the dial, but it’s actually a handmade clock. I wish it would keep time, though.

    I made a grandfather clock from an Emperor kit back in 92. With regular maintenance it keeps excellent time even after 30 years!

    Not sure if anyone has noticed, but the first quarter melody for both Whittington and St. Michael’s are the major scale going down. It’s in the key of A, so that would be A-G#-F#-E-D-C#-B-A for that first pattern.

    This clock was assembled by the original owner using the kit of precisely cut wood parts sold by the Emperor Clock Company, which is still in business.

    maybe you can hang the weights on the chains the next time your over there and the pendulum will swing and the striking train will work so you won't have to manually have to strike the hour

    From watching your video for the first time, all three weights different. Each weight is different. Each weight has a label at the bottom indicating where they go on the chain. You don't hang any weights in any particular order.
    L for left chain C for center chain and R for right chain.

      Your aunt probably has the 300M model which has the classic simple pendulum but still has the classic 1970s urgos movement the 300Ms were sold around 1970-1978 does it have the chime selector on the face?

      They were detached from the chains at some point. The only thing that needs to be fixed is that the weights have to be hooked onto the chains.

      No cabinet made by the emperor clock company this was a kit that was assembled during the 70s this kit was something that was completely disassembled and you could put everything together all though of course you wouldn’t put together the movement the movement was already put together what I meant was you put together the case and yes the movement was made by urgos.
