Seth Thomas Regulator No. 6 in Walnut, c.1884 |
|
|
Ship From So. CA
|
|
One of the most popular Seth Thomas weight-driven wall clocks is Regulator No. 6. So popular that it was copied and re-released in the 1970s by General Time, the company that bought the Seth Thomas (and has since folded). THIS IS NOT A REPRODUCTION, but an original clock with a factory stenciled date on the back of 1884.
Physical: The walnut case has an older refinish that looks great. It measures 49"h x 16/5"w x 6" d. The 10" diameter dial has the original paint in excellent condition. There is a small horizontal crack in the dial board that you can only see when the door is open. This clock also has an original label that's in exceptionally nice condition. The glass appears to be original as do the finials.
Mechanical: This model uses the same time-only, weight-driven movement that's in the Regulator No. 2. The original 80-beat movement features lantern pinions, Graham pallets. This one was just overhauled (2011) and is in excellent running order, ready for years of great service for you.
Comments: Like the other Seth Thomas wall-hanging, weight-driven clocks, this model has continued to climb in value. Don't miss it if you've been seeking a nice, clean original (and this one has an exceptional price, too)!

Seth Thomas Regulator No. 9 in Oak |
|
|
Ship From CA
|
|
(Original Catalogue Drawing) |
|
This is amazing! On the day we shipped the previous Seth Thomas Regulator No. 9, another one showed up and became available to us. Extraordinary! Take a look for yourself:
Physical: The oak case measures 15.75"w x 48"h x 7"d. It bears the original finish, which shows some slight crazing - beautiful. The 10" dial retains its original finish and is in excellent condition. There is a nice label in the base, though we're not sure if it is original.
Mechanical: The eight-day, time-only, deadbeat, retaining-power movement was overhauled in 2011 and is in excellent running order.
Comments: This is a super clock that will make a great addition to your collection or a wonderful single clock. We're delighted to offer it at the same price as the last one we had. Give us a call to make it your own!

Waterbury 30-Day, 24"-Dial Gallery Clock |
|
|
Ship From So. CA
|
|
|
|
Here is one HUGE gallery clock for your consideration, the largest of this style by the Waterbury Clock Co. Its original 1913 catalogue price was $33; now it's a little more expensive!
Physical: The oak case, which has a beautiful finish (assiming original) measures 24" diameter for the dial and 34" diameter across the back of the case, and 5" in depth. It is a BIG clock! The dial has the original paing with the Waterbury logo and the "Thirty Day" marking that has grown faint with age. It could be strengthened by a dial-painter if that was to your liking. There is nice crazing on the dial as you can see in the closeup photos.
Mechanical: The 30-day movement was recently overhauled and two new springs installed. so it is in excellent running order, ready for years of great service for you!
|
Comments: Though we have gallery clocks available fairly consistently, seldom have we had one as large as this; and the long-running thirty-day movement makes it a whole lot more desirable. Will it be yours?

Seth Thomas Regulator No. 3 in Burled Walnut |
|
|
Ship From So. CA
|
|
Original Catalogue Drawing
|
|
We've not had a Seth Thomas No. 3 in burled walnut for quite some time, so we're delighted to have this nice clean one for your consideration.
Physical: The burled walnut case measures 20"w x 44"h x 6"d and features the original finish. The silvering around the lower door has been restored. There is a closeup shot of the finish so you can see how original it is.
At some point way back, someone added a small movement access door on the upper right side. The hardware looks like the 1920s-1940s era. It was probably to make hanging the pendulum easier, though that seems like a lot of work just to avoid taking off the dial. Fortunately, you'd about have to be a mouse to see behind and know it was present!
The 14" dial was professionally repainted by Lesley Neff, our dial-painter of choice. It was badly chipped and the numerals were worn quite thin. She consistently does superb work as you can see.
Be sure to note the great damascened nickel pendulum bob and the nice original label in the bottom of the case.
Mechanical: The eight-day time only movement features polished, cut pinions of solid steel, Graham pallets, retaining power at 72 beats/min. It has been professionally overhauled and is in excellent running order ready for years of great service.
|
Comments: This model was very popular in banks and law firms and higher-end offices. Perhaps it will be similarly popular in your home or office?

Kroeber Regulator No. 43 |
|
|
Ship From So. CA
|
|
(original catalogue) |
|
This Kroeber clock may be a variant of the Regulator No. 43 the catalogue drawing of which you see to the left. Hard to say...
The Clock Guy wrote the introduction to Tran Duy Ly's monstrously large Kroeber Clocks book that is linked below, so we are very familiar with his clocks, but you never know when a curve-ball will be pitched!
We wondered if the crown was replaced as there is a glue line on the back, but the wood appears old, and the restorer who did the refinishing fixed the middle finial that had apparently been broken off.
This clock is similar in design to the very popular Ansonia Santa Fe model that was rampantly copied by all the CT clockmakers. But the Kroeber clock has a much fancier pendulum.
Physical: The walnut case measures 12.5"w x 45"h x 6"d and has been professionally refinished. The beat plates on these were paper covered and generally ragged if not missing. This one has a new paper. The 7" paper dial is in very good age-appropriate condition. In addition, there is a great label on the back of the case. The glass also appears to be original.
Mechanical: The original eight-day, time-and-strike Kroeber movement is marked and was just overhauled in 2011, so is in excellent running order. It has the original Geneva stops still in place (often removed by frustrated repairmen who didn't know how to adjust them).
|
Comments: A very pretty wall clock that doesn't take up a lot of space and which makes an exceptionally elegant statement... will it be yours?

Physical: The walnut case has the original finish and measures 49"h x 16/5"w x 6" d.

|

|

Physical: The walnut case measures 14.75"w x 46"h x 6"d and is in excellent overall condition with the original finish. We noticed a small chip on horizontal moulding just above the right lower finial and a small abraision on the left corner of the post just above the left-hand column. The glass is not bubbly, so difficult to say for sure if it is original. We have included a photo of the inside of the door so you can see the glass installation for yourself. The 8" dial is original to the clock, in excellent condition and has the original paint. The dial is signed "E. Howard & Co ~ Boston". It has a spectacular damascened pendulum bob.
Mechanical: The eight-day time-only, single-weight movement was professionally serviced in 2009 and is in excellent running order.
Comments: We have only had a few of these to offer our clients over the years as most stay put in collections. The collection where this one resides continues to grow with larger clocks and has run out of room for more, so their wallspace oveload is your opportunity!

Extremely Clean/Original
Waterbury Regulator No. 3 in Walnut
Here's a rock-solid example of a two-weight Waterbury regulator, c.1891. We discovered (too late) that we have a focus problem with the front and front right photos. Looks like the ambient light in the room tricked the flash not to flash, so gave us a grainy photo. We'll replace it when we next visit our consignor, but don't let that stop you from buying the clock in the meantime!
Physical: The walnut case has the original finish and measures 16"w x 46"h x 5.5"d. The case is in excellent physical condition as you can see in the photos. There is a door-jamb scratch on the inside from the latch that doesn't show from the front when the door is closed. We would seal it and stain it to match if it were ours. The 8.5" diameter dial is original to the clock and the hands and door glass are original as well. If original is what you like, this clock is it!
Mechanical: The eight-day, time-only, deadbeat escapement movement was professionally overhauled in 2005 and is ready for years of great service in your home or office.
Comments: This is an extraordinarily clean clock. Not fancy, just solid American design. Don't let it slip through your grasp!

Waterbury Regulator No. 53, c.1906
Here's a wonderful Waterbury hanging clock with a lot of nice detail in the case that's in excellent physical and mechanical condition. Check the detailed photos below!
Physical: The quartered oak case measures 19.875"w x 53.25"h x 8"d. It is in excellent condition, having recently been professionally restored. The 10" dial is original to the clock and in excellent condition. Weights are original, too. The original cost of this clock in 1906 was $25.
Mechanical: The time-only, 2-weight movement was completely overhauled in 2005 and is in excellent running order.
Comments: The Waterbury company was known for ornate wood cases and strong movements. This clock is an excellent example of the genre.

24” Dial ~ Weight-Driven
Howard Regulator No. 20, c. 1874
Here is a nice big E.Howard clock for your consideration. Got a great mantle that needs a large format clock above? This would be a great choice. We don't see this model floating around out there. And other Howard marble clocks (as you can see) are much more pricey; this one is a bargain.
Physical: The widest/tallest part of the clock is 28". The marble is in excellent condition. The dial signature has been "strengthened". Note the great damascened pendulum bob.
Mechanical: The signed eight-day, time-only, single weight movement is in excellent overhauled condition, ready for years of service. Most of these old Howards have had the weight fall at some point and go right through the bottom of the case; not so with this one.
Note the rod that goes up from the movement: it goes to a rate adjustment knob on the top of the case that is not visible from the front. Also, note the lever on the bottom that folds out of view, but which can be folded down to (cleverly) restart the pendulum without having to open the front of the case... very cool.
Comments: Ready for a substantial wall clock? You know how to reach us!
