More Information

Not satisfactorily tested since we have not been able to secure it to a wall, ie the thick back-board needs a large and strong hanging hook. Case made in a vaguely period-style, the clock bolted to the wood stand, so is heavy. Post-framed movement with three-wheeled trains with a suggested thirty-hour duration; curious vertical crown-wheel and a rear-mounted count-wheel. With a wire pendulum and lightweight bob. No weights. Generally - attention needed.
