Something a little different. I have just finished the restoration of this Russian cold war submarine clock. As well as a routine overhaul it also required a new set of pallet jewels. Now on final test, it will be looking for a new home soon.

This is the latest edition to the showroom. A lovely Victorian,small size, mahogany Dial clock. This clock features a 10" dial and timepiece fusee movement.
I've been having a run of 30 hour longcase clocks recently. This one was a wreck and took a great deal of blood, sweat and tears to restore properly. Due to very badly damaged pulleys, the clock was also converted to chain drive.
This 1830's 30 hour longcase movement has only just gone up onto the test rack. It had suffered a serious centre wheel failure after a previous poor repair. New pivot steel and bespoke bushes have solved the problem. Alive and ticking again.
On test a fully restored longcase movement. This movement features a deadbeat escapement, centre sweep seconds, centre sweep date, and moonphase.
