Description:
This is surely one of the largest and most impressive wall regulators that we've ever owned!! The 68" tall case retains its original Oak finish and the brass pendulum bob and weight are also original and undented. The original eight-day Seth Thomas #62 movement is clean and running well. According to a Saskatoon, (Canada) authority the Canadian Pacific Railroad installed these dials in the 1920's to replace the original Seth Thomas dial. (see photographs). The person from whom I purchased the clock says that it came from a Canadian collector. The movement features a "Keystone" front plate and steel-cut pinions. The 'dead-beat' escapement has maintaining power so the clock will continue measuring time even when it is being re-wound each week. The long wood shaft pendulum is 26 3/4" from suspension to the tip of the 4 9/16" diameter(#27) ball. The large door has THREE locks to secure it snugly!! These are opened and closed using the winding crank. This imposing regulator will be the focal point of any room in which it is displayed. The modest price is the result of a good buy from a long-time supplier of clocks who favors us with lower acquisition charges. PRICE CHANGE NOTE: THE 2005 ARLINGTON PUBLISHING COMPANY PRICE GUIDE NOW LISTS THIS CLOCK AT $8000.00. We have retained our original price of $6900.
