Moncas, Liverpool, English two day marine chronometer in a 3-tier case with brass corners on top and bottom only, c1860
CONDITION: the mahogany box has been refinished, with stress cracks and repairs and the dial needs professional refinishing, as it went without a crystal for some time and is etched by the elements, & now polished to brass. The chain fusee movement is intact, has no rust nor corrosion, and is running robustly. In this early chronometer, the key attaches to the winding arbor with a set screw, and the movement never had a shroud for a later style key, nor does the tub have a cover or shutter for the keyhole {never did}. Gimbal, tub and movement appear original to the case, rotates in all directions, but front screw does rub on the rear of the box as it passes. Moncas were retailers of repute in Liverpool, but were not actually clockmakers as literature would suggest, the dial is identified with serial #9043. Note small movement diameter = 2.83" [7.2cm], Dial = 3.5" OD. Box width = 6" [15.3cm], ht of box 6.6" [16.8cm]

Waltham Girandole case, with the number 19, and bearing an original mov't [no extra holes] signed E. Howard & Co, nickel plated and with maintaining power, 8-day, weight, C.1927
CONDITION: well this came from a NH Estate and both the owner and his son felt this was an original Waltham, however the movement is clearly signed E. Howard & Co. This is a quality Howard movement (with maintaining power) C.1925, that is often found in the Howard No. 95, and with typical Howard pendulum. Case throat has a proper silvered brass thermometer, signed Taylor. The original Waltham signed dial is crazed and starting to flake, but is still very nice. About 60% of the original case gilding is intact; areas that flaked were touched up with gold paint. One ball is missing from lower bezel. We have spoken with knowledgeable folks that have studied Waltham, and although there is a general acknowledgement that there were some shared cases and or movements as the companies began to struggle, it is not possible for us to state categorically that this clock is proper. There have been other examples of Waltham cases with Howard movements {one in today's sale also}, We only know for sure that Mr. Moodie acquired the clock about the time that Amoskeag Company took over the final Waltham inventory, and that it has been in one place until 2010.

Note this clock has an early paper dial without the equation of time chart inside the month ring, C.1871. (See another example in today's sale with the equation chart present)
CONDITION: overall good original condition, but things that keep this from being excellent include a 1/4 inch piece of plywood screwed to the original back to strengthen cracks in the back.

Last, the pendulum rod is normally wood on this model, and it is now steel. Entire case has been lightly varnished over. Good Welch and good Gale instruction labels [total 2]. The small inner bezel that is opened to wind the clock has been reinforced with a hand-wrought circle of brass and 23 wood screws.

New Hampshire, Striking Lyre Banjo, certainly by Abiel Chandler of Concord, NH, the dial signed "Smith", the retailer, C.1835
CONDITION: similar lyre examples are found in nearly every reference book, including those by Parsons, Nutting and Palmer, however we feel that none are as correct nor as original as this one. Reference book photos show similar clocks with various replaced hands, bezels, finials and tablets, while this one, other than replaced iron weights, is about as "good as it gets". Original reverse painted tablets are still held in by their original glue blocks. A minor dry split at the bottom of the carved panel could be repaired, but not without removing the original tablet and glue blocks holding it in place.

CONDITION: euphoria over the great look on this clock is compromised when you remove the dial to reveal that the movement has been changed to a slightly later one. You can see that it was originally a striker, a circular pattern and scars from the original bell, and the case back to the right of that has been cut out for a hammer. There are some veneer chips in the bezel above 12. The dial has been repainted. Would be closer to $8000 if the movement was original. Ht 36"
