Over our twenty-five years in business we've almost always had a list of people who were looking for log-running Vienna regulators. Generally, if one can find one, it's a 30-day hanging configuration. But here is a magnificent Austrian standing 45-day clock from the last quarter of the 19th Century just waiting for that special place in your home or office. Forty-five days! Everything on this clock is original... everything.
NOTE: We took the photos in the consignor's home in the late afternoon with very red sunlight coming in the windows. In some cases we were able to decrease the over-powering red coloration, while in others, not so much. We did our best! But we can guarantee that this is a beautiful clock. It will show better in your home against against a neutral-colored background!
Physical: The walnut case, which measures 92"h x 22"w x 12"d is in excellent overall condition with original finish and original glass. The outside diameter of the engraved silvered and brass dial is 10.5".
It matches the engraved pendulum bob. Note also that the ornate
carving in the midsection is repeated in the base.
Mechanical: The heavy-duty 45-day time-only movement with thick plates is in excellent mechanical condition. Note the wood mounts. It has just been professionally serviced by one of the top technicians on the West Coast. Won't it be nice to only have to wind it every month and a half? (!)
Comments: Opportunities to own a clock of this caliber/running duration do not come along very often. Here's your opportunity. Please give us a call to start the acquisition process.
