Vintage Howard Miller "Hampton" Chiming Mantel Clock (Model 630-150) - Tested & Working. Up for sale is a beautiful, premium Howard Miller "Hampton" tambour-style chiming mantel clock. Crafted from select hardwoods and veneers, the sloping tambour casing is finished in a warm, rich Windsor Casual Cherry. The classic exterior design is highlighted by book-matched side scrolls, decorative beaded molding framing the face base, and sits securely on integrated wooden block feet. Features a crisp, aged-parchment style off-white dial accented by clean, easily readable black Roman numerals, an inner minute track, and ornate black serpentine hands behind a hinged glass bezel door.
Premium Movement & Electronic Features. Unlike high-maintenance manual mechanical clocks, this model runs seamlessly on a high-precision quartz, battery-operated dual-chime German Kieninger movement. It is equipped with advanced internal controls accessed easily via the rear panel door.
Dual-Chime Melody: Switch effortlessly between full Westminster or Ave Maria chime sequences. 4/4 Chime & Strike: Can be set to play 1/4, 1/2, and 3/4 progression chimes with a full strike count on the hour. Volume Control: Built-in physical dial allows you to precisely raise, lower, or silence the chime projection.
Automatic Night Mode: Features a highly practical night shut-off sensor that automatically silences the chimes during late evening hours so your sleep remains undisturbed. Excellent pre-owned cosmetic and functional condition!
The clock has been fully tested and keeps perfect, accurate time. The chime speaker functions beautifully with crisp sound clarity. The cherry wood cabinet shows a gorgeous luster and is free from deep cracks, heavy scratches, or sun fading.
Battery terminals inside the dual "C" compartment are immaculate and free of corrosion. A magnificent, stately addition to a living room fireplace mantel, an executive office shelf, or a traditional study desk!
