Beautiful clocks, BUT, SADLY, almost NONE of them these days RETAIN MUCH VALUE. What a shame! At this very moment, I am looking at a clock NOW ON OFFER at a local estate liquidation. [It seems to be the exact model as in this video.] Most likely, it will be gotten for MUCH LESS THAN $100. After the auction, I will post the final sales price. I hope I am surprised and that it sells for several $HUNDRED; however, for the last several years, sales prices, for the SELLERS, have been terrible; for the BUYERS, on the other hand, prices are great.

Yes although it is really attractive clock, like another commenter said, its a marriage as the dial would never have been paired with that thirty hour movement which looks like a birdcage movement circa 1725/ 35 Hands are also not original as they are too long for the dial probably from around 1760 The dial however is from 1685/90

I read a few of the comments and one in particular stated that the spring wound clock is more reliable and accurate, to that I say, not at all! I have an 1835 Charles Stratton, wood movement clock and it is more accurate than any of my spring wound, brass movement clocks. Why, because a weight keeps the same tension on the movement from top, wound up, to the bottom, unwound. A spring tension, one day or eight-day clock, simply does not. It will run faster when wound and slow down as the mainspring unwinds. My 1835, wooden movement clock, is accurate within 15 seconds a week, imagine that for a 190-year-old movement made out of wood!

@@kurt2022 I have two wooden works clocks and they usually run OK but sometimes depending on the humidity one will stop. Wooden works clocks were replaced by brass after the 1837 Financial Panic and were advertised as being improved, Almost no wooden works clocks were made after that year with brass replacing them completely. I have a Riley Whiting one and another column and splat that I don't know the maker. The Riley Whiting is earlier and actually quite reliable, The early brass clocks had a large cut out in the dial so you could see the brass works and demonstrated the superior quality. That's my read on it. Nice video.
