Although our favorite clocks are Vienna Regulators, we like anything that ticks, and you will find almost any style of clock on our website at one time or another, as long as it has value as an antique.
All of the clocks we offer have been inspected mechanically, and restored if necessary. Our “Caveats” section in each clock's description should accurately point out any areas which contain flaws, or signs of age, or non-original parts.
All of our clocks are sold FOB shipping point, and we can provide reliable arrangements for crating and shipment.

- Gensign 8 Day Regulator - Time Only
- This English clock has had a rough life. It originally started out (ca. 1930) as a time clock, but when we purchased it the bottom of the case had been cut off (apparently with a hand saw),so there was no bottom for the case, and the movement was coated with heavy gear lube grease (everywhere). The... [more>>]

- Unsigned 8 Day Bedermeier, Time Only
- This finely-made clock was originally estimated to be from around 1860, but when I had it apart for cleaning and polishing I found a signature on the dial plate indicating that the clock was actually made in 1832. I have noted this clock as "unsigned" because the signature is very faint, and done in... [more>>]

It is a marriage, but both the case and the mechanism are absolutely correct for the period, and the extra holes in the backboard are not new (see photo).
