Seth Thomas Regulator No. 30 in Cherry Antique Clock Guy

Ship from So CA

All Original Seth Thomas Regulator No. 30
In Hard-to-Find Cherry, c.1909

Here is another mainstay of the serious Seth Thomas collector. Most of this model have been absorbed into and held closely by serious collectors. This one is in absolutely original condition throughout. We're fortunate at present to have three of this model from which you may choose, this relatively rare one in cherry, and two in oak.

Physical: The dark oak case retains its original finish and measures 18"w x 49"h x 7"d. The 12" diameter dial retains the original paint... usually repainted in older Seth Thomas clocks of this genre. The glass is original and bubbly. With reverse-gilded glass it is extremely difficult to verify age. Often, they have been "re-blacked" over time as the covering paint has worn with cleaning. So, all we can tell you about this one is that it looks great from the front. Probably old, but we can't guarantee it. There is a label in the bottom that has been replaced. Most Seth Thomas inside bottom labels this old are either gone, mostly gone, or very dark (what's left of them). The pendulum and weight are original.

Mechanical: The single-weight, time-only, deadbeat, retaining-power movement is in excellent running order, having recently been professionally overhauled, and is ready for years of great service for you.

Comments: Grab it while you can... a classic Seth Thomas design in relatively short supply that isn't going anywhere but up in value.

Beautiful Seth Thomas Office Calendar No 13
in Cherry
Seth Thomas Office Calendar No 13 in Cherry - Antique Clocks Guy

Seth Thomas Office Calendar No 13 in Cherry - Antique Clocks Guy

Ship From So. CA

In our's opinion, the most beautiful non-burled cases Seth Thomas made were those in cherry. We've just sold a cherry No.9 that hung in our hallway for nearly two years and became perhaps our personal favorite during its tenure here. We had a beautiful new kitchen built from scratch about three years ago and used this same natural cherry wood. That kitchen gets great oohs and ahhs when people see if for the first time. Just like people will fawn over your new Office Calendar 13 in cherry.

Physical: The solid cherry case, which measures 18"w x 49"h x 7"d retains the original finish. It has been cleaned up and polished and has a lovely luster to it. The clock dial was touched up, and the calendar dial repainted by the famous dial-painter, Martha Smallwood. The glass is original. Note the signature on the dial of the Jeweler who sold the clock, or, more likely, had it in his own shop:

Seth Thomas Office Calendar No 13 in Cherry - Antique Clocks Guy


Mechanical: The movements have been professionially overhauled and run perfectly. The clock is an eight-day movement; the calendar 31 days. The calendar roller dials are original

Comments: We may have had only one of this model available to us in the past. This model uses the same case as the very popular Seth Thomas Regulator 30. Perhaps you own a No.30, or perhaps you own another similar-sized Seth Clock in cherry with with this would be a great hanging partner.

Seth Thomas Parlor Calendar No. 10 - Later Model

Seth Thomas Parlor Calendar No. 10 - Antique Clocks Guy

Ship From So. CA

Seth Thomas Parlor Calendar No. 10 - 1892 and 1896 models - Antique Clocks Guy Seth Thomas Parlor Calendar No. 10 - Original Catalogue Drawing (1892) - Antique Clocks Guy
There were two versions of this particular model. The earlier is pictured on the right and was in the 1892 catalogue. The later model with the frame above the rings on top was in the 1896 catalogue.
Here is a great deal on a very straight Seth Thomas clock. A couple of years ago we sold this same clock for $1,000 more, but our consignor got a great deal on this one and we're passing that on to you.

Physical: The beautiful walnut case measures 28.5"w x 36"h x 6" deep and has the original finish. It is in excellent physical condition. The 10" diameter dials retain the original paint. There is also a nice label on the back of the door (see photo below). There are no apoligies on this clock - it's the nicest, most original we've ever seen.

Mechanical: The double weight-driven time and coil-strike movement (strikes on the hour) as well as the calendar movement were professionally overhauled in 2005 at which time the roller covers were replaced. Both movements are in excellent mechanical running condition, ready for years of great service for you.

Comments: If you are a serious calendar clock or Seth Thomas collector, then you know what this clock is. If you don't, well, now's a great time to get acquainted, perhaps with the pair!

Seth Thomas City Series "Santa Fe" Model - Antique Clocks Guy

Ship From So. CA

This clock is one of the City Series by Seth Thomas. We've never had one of this model available to us before, but understand they generally are missing some of the incredible metal leaves on the front. Take a close look at this stunning clock:

The case is 22.5"h and has a wonderful 6" dial that retains the original paint. There is a remnant label in the inside bottom. While you're looking at that, be sure to take a close look at the incredible damascened pendulum bob - it is in amazing condition.

Mechanical: The eight-day half-hour-striking movement was recently professionally overhauled and is ready for years of great service in your home.

Sessions “ Biltmore ” Tambour, c.1918

Ship From Vista CA

This little clock belongs to a personal friend. It has just been professionally overhauled. Normally, we do not have clocks in this price range; in this case, we are just presenting it here in behalf of our friend.

This same case was called "No. 1928" in the 1914 catalogue; "Harding" in the 1918 catalogue; and "No.8291" in the 1923 catalogue, however those models had a simpler movement with only a coiled gong.

Physical: The mahogany finish case is in good original condition, measures 17.5"w x 11"h x 5.5"d and features brass sash feet. This model was apparently made with either a silvered or porcelain 6" dial. This one has the more desirable porcelain. This clock also has most of its original label present inside the back cover. Note, too, that it retains the original embossed pendulum bob - often replaced on many mantle clocks.

Mechanical: The eight-day time-and-strike movement strikes the half- hour on a cup bell, and the hour on a coiled gong. As noted above, this clock was recently professionally overhauled and is ready for years of great service.

Comments: Looking for a birthday or perhaps graduation gift in advance that won't break the bank? Give this nice clock some thought.

Seth Thomas Regulator No. 3 in Burled Walnut - Antique Clocks Guy

Ship From So. CA

Here is one of the most desired of the "industrial" Seth Thomas regulators. This particular model, which has a large 14" dial was made in several wood configurations, with oak being the most common. Burled walnut is the least common and most desirable of them all.

Physical: The walnut case measures 20"w x 44"h x 6"d and has the original finish. As you can see, it is in excellent physical condition, including the tips of the finials being present. The 14" dial has the original paint, and is also in excellent condition. The nickel trim, with the exception of the weight, was recently replated and is beautiful. Note the beautiful damascened pendulum bob. There is an old, original label in the inside bottom of the case. Grungy as most are, but still there!

Mechanical: The eight-day, time-only, deadbeat, retaining-powere movement was recently professionally overhauled and is in excellent running order, ready for years of great service for you.

Comments: This model generally moves very quickly. Are you quick, too?
