Beautiful clock! I have one just like it, I recently got one from the antique store and I had a hard time trying to find what brand it was and it had Jauch movement and they specifically made it for emperor clocks. This video helped me so much that the catalog looks exactly like mine on 100 model. Thank you for sharing this!
Nice video and nice clock too. The movement looks to be in need of a cleaning and oiling as I can see some black gunk around where the pivots insert into the bushings. Def. don't want that as the black gunk means there's dirt there and that will act like an abrasive on the pivots and bushings, causing wear. A professional cleaning and oiling every two to four years is the suggested maintenance schedule to keep these clocks running smoothly for many years to come. I service clocks myself so I'm quite familiar with them. Once again, great video, and take good care of that clock. P.S I know this video is three years old, but I'm just seeing it now :)
Thank you for the comment, just now getting on here to respond. Yes I have the clock maker looking after this one. It was totally torn down and refurbished. Keeps excellent time, Thanks for your feedback!
I have an Emperor grandfather clock I bought second hand, and the bottom wood panel piece is busted as a weight must have been dropped inside the case. Since these are clocks assembled from a kit, is it possible to remove the bottom panel to replace it? Is there anywhere that shows how this is done.
I just looked at the paperwork I have and I didn't see anything that was real specific on how to do it. The only thing that it really mentions is that the "foot" is pre-shaped, and must be fitted at the front two corners along the trim molding. It looks like possibly the piece of wood could possibly slide in from behind one of the trim pieces however it is not descriptive of the front or the back. Hopefully this helps, otherwise if you could find a carpenter they might be able to assist with it. Best of luck with your clock!
@@collectingwithnate796 Its a huge clock...or at least it looks so now that its home lol. Dark walnut color with the moon wheel. I'm not sure 100% which one it is really, the movement only says, "Made for Emperor Clock Company" "Made in Germany" "Pendell 110cm" and what looks like "Erhard Auct Uhrenfabrik". It looks like the bottom panel is glued to the clock feet. A shame because I know these come apart but didn't get lucky there. Will figure out something!
Very nice sound and for the courtesy of you and others who view this, the chime tune being played is "Westminster" and there are actually words for it. They are below if you want to read them while listening or sing along and it occurs at the 1:03 mark. Lord, through this hour, be Thou our guide. So, by Thy power, no foot shall slide. These words are based on Psalm 37:23-24, where David the psalmist declares this: The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord and he delighteth in His way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down, for the Lord upholdeth him with His hand.
Hi, congratulations on getting your clock. If everything is in place and nothing is broken, once the weights are pulled up a gentle swing of the pendulum should be all it needs to get going. A instruction manual may be available online also. However these clocks can be touchy, If everything looks okay on the clock and it still doesn’t run you may want to consult with a local clock shop. That’s what I eventually did with mine to keep it running right.
Good idea to get in touch with a good clock shop and have it serviced, once that's been done it should run for quite along time before another service is required. That of course depends on the make and model of the particular clock.

I have this exact same clock!
Not very often do you see an old grandfather clock that still has the original information pamphlets and repair cards

The German card is very interesting. As to the fact I am German, I can read it like English.

Hello do you have an idea of how to get the clock going? My husband just came home with the same exact one and we can’t figure it out.

How do you keep a clock like this running forever?

That sounds like a Hermle Movement
It's a kit clock that you put together..
You can pick them up for about 75$...
@@johndowd7010 The Jauch 77 is $400. So I think it would be hard to find for $75
You still have it?
Yep, been running great!
@@collectingwithnate796 Thats great!
