Junghans Westminster Chime Bracket Clock With Fully Restored Movement

JUNGHANS WESTMINSTER CHIME BRACKET CLOCK WITH FULLY RESTORED MOVEMENT. For your consideration is an impressive German made Junghans Westminster chime bracket clock. The case style is Architectural Edwardian era. The movement is marked B08 which means that it was made in the second half of 1908. Case measures 17.5 inches tall by 11.25 inches wide by 8 inches deep.

The dial is in nice condition and there are also two sub-dials that allow you to silence the chimes but not the strike from the front of the clock and regulate the speed of the clock. Glass is beveled and in good condition. The clock plays the Westminster Chime of 4 notes at quarter after, 8 notes at half past, 12 notes at quarter till, and then the full sixteen notes at the top of the your and then strikes out the hours on the longest of the five chime rods that sounds like a church bell. A video is attached that allows you to hear the beautiful tone of this clock. The movement has been completely restored using the proper horological repair methods. Please look carefully at the attached pictures as they provide a large amount of the description of this fine timepiece.

WHAT MAKES A CLOCK A GOOD VALUE? The rules of economics are fairly straightforward. Simply put, it is almost impossible to spend a little and get a lot. Antique and vintage clocks follow these rules as well.

I have tried through the photos to show the basic steps that I do in restoring these wonderful machines to their original state. My goal is to provide you with a quality time piece that will provide enjoyment and be a source of pride in your home for years to come. Equally important to me is to provide you with a clock that I believe will retain its value over the years.

That is what I think constitutes real value in antique and vintage clocks. MY PHILOSOPHY ON CLOCKS AND CLOCK MOVEMENTS. The only way to properly repair a movement is to completely disassemble, clean and inspect all parts, and make the needed repairs by proper horological methods. This includes the rebushing of all worn holes and the polishing of any rough pivots. The movements are then reassembled, lubricated with a high-quality clock oil and test run for 8 days. This is a very time intensive process but is the only correct way to properly recondition a clock movement. You should expect a movement repaired in this manner to run for ten years trouble-free. I have been doing clock repair for over 43 years. I apprenticed under an Oregon State licensed repairman and have been a member of the National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors (NAWCC) since 1981. I do not make a living doing this; it has become a passion of mine.

Once they are made like new mechanically, I put them up for sale in the hopes of. Paying for my materials and upgrading my personal collection. My hope is also to provide you with an heirloom to cherish for years to come.

Buyers need to understand that the clocks I sell are between 80 and 140 years old. While the movements are fully serviced, all of my clocks show some scars from these decades of use. I try to describe these marks as best I can and mention them in my listing text.

You can see that I live by these words. In addition, specific instructions on how to properly operate the clock and reset the chimes are provided as well as how to handle Daylight Savings time.
