This was one of the most extravagant and expensive watches that had ever been made with highly unusual 12K solid gold plates (originally intended to be 14K but changed for engineering purposes) and was meant to compete with the Edward Howard by Howard Watch Co. and the Premier Maximus by the American Waltham Watch Co. It retailed for $500, equivalent to $15000 to $20000 today. Gruen promoted this watch as, "the priceless possession of a few", which was adopted as the title of a well known NAWCC Bulletin Supplement (please see this supplement for reference). This is a scarce two star watch in Gilbert, Shugart and Engle's "The Complete Price Guide to Watches".

The German Hermle 3-train movement has been cleverly modified into a two-train striker on three gong rods, and it may need service after nearly 20 years.

Howard & Davis, Boston, Special order "Regulator No. 3" banjo, with unique 66 beats/ minute movement, and with original second's bit below 12, and with appropriate keystone & crutch for the seconds bit, and gilt-exposed pendulum stick, c1848
CONDITION: as is common for this time period, only the dial is signed, however our experts give this clock original status [except for items noted]. Old time collectors realize that just when you think you have seen everything, something different comes along. The plates of this Movement have the brushed pattern typical of Howard and Davis, and all wheels and train parts are "Howard issue". Pendulum stick retains its original gilding, and bob has the remains of its brushed finish [someone made the mistake of using brasso instead of clock cleaner on the bob]. Original cast iron weight bears a cast in "3". The dilemma on this clock is the lower tablet, which has been replaced with one bearing the gilt oval in the center; it is our feeling that the original would have had the oval lower to show the 66 beat pendulum in typical fashion. For comparison, we refer you to Petrucelli & Sposato's book on Banjo Clocks, page 159, showing an all original striking Howard & Davis, with the pendulum showing in the TOP half of the glass, and the date of mfg showing in the lower half. Our best recommendation would be to make a tablet with the oval orifice positioned to show the center of the pendulum bob. The only other item that is not original is the brass tab for the bow-tie pendulum hold down, which could be easily replaced. Note the escape wheel on this Movement has 33 teeth, versus the standard 30 that Howard used. The 3 extra teeth allow it to time in this case, and show the passing minute on the seconds bit. Case has been French polished; dial signature may have been strengthened long ago. Ht 38"

Porcelain dial has hairlines at 1 and near winding holes. Bezel has been turned 1/4 inch on mask, leaving spare holes. Exterior finish on this case is 100% original, with great patina. Weights are original. This clock came from a private home in Branford, CT where it has hung for decades. This is a very hard to find model, and finishing the top should leave you with a $6500 clock.

James Arthur, New York City, a "one-of-a-kind" shelf banjo time piece, weight driven, 8 day. 1903 [dated]
CONDITION: Odd pieces from the James Arthur estate have filtered onto the market over the past half century, and older collectors recognize his work at first sight. Arthur emigrated to NY from Scotland and owned and operated a New York City machine shop for patent models. Both the study of clocks and making unique items were his hobby. The substantial and well made mahogany case has nice proportions. Arthur created a jewel-like pattern on the movement mounting plate and on the heavy brass weight cover. The heavy turned brass pendulum bob is typical of his work. The top and bottom door are latched by heavy brass latches from the period. Weight runs on a vertical steel track so it cannot get lost or forgotten. This clock is signed with his stamp and dated 1903 on the rear of the pendulum bob. Ht 37"

New England tiger maple tall case clock, c1810, now with period Riley Whiting, Winchester, Conn. 30 hour time and strike wooden works.
CONDITION: The case, with an old refinish and replaced skirt, appears very similar to an example by Emory shown on page 24 of Dworetsky. One side cove molding is loose and has a break on the lower left case side and the brass castings on the columns of the hood are replacements. The consignor has supplied a provenance sheet, indicating that the original movement was exchanged for a brass one c1920. The current movement and dial c1830, sitting on a new plywood seat board, was fit more recently and looks ready to run. Flwg comments added by editor: " Jesse Emory worked in Weare, New Hampshire and apparently made some cases for his clocks, but this is in no way one of his cases. The clock referenced is not in its original case. I knew that clock shown in Dworetsky when it belonged to an old collector in Newburg, New York. I believe this clock case was also made in New York state from the design and the extensive use of high quality tiger maple (which was plentiful in NY state, but not so much in Conn.) This handsome case could have had a wooden movement originally as it is about c1810-1820, but is nice enough to have had a brass movement.", [Chris Bailey 3/12] Ht 97" to top of finial"

CONDITION: Quarter sawn oak case in an old finish in fairly nice condition for its age with some minor issues such as split in the top of the backboard now held together with metal and wood cross strips.

New Haven Clock Co., New Haven, Conn., "The Mountebank", 8 day, time and strike, rare automaton "Dancing Skeleton" novelty clock, c1905
CONDITION: These rare clocks were apparently a short production run on special order, as we do not find them in the catalogs. The "theater style" case houses two movements. The lower is a regular pendulum striking movement that trips a separate movement above that causes the skeleton figure to perform acrobatics. Both movements are assembled from the same New Haven plate blanks, but with different trains. This example retains what appears to be its original paint with some age loss. Original dial has loss to the paint surrounding the numbers. The hands are original. A paper label is pasted on the back door. There is some wear to the gilt metal ornaments. We sold one of these in the May 2009 auction, item 94. That example was probably refinished. Ht 22"

This method of construction was abandoned not long after banjo time pieces came on the scene in favor of mitered corners and glue blocks. Both tablets are old with a lot of inpainting.

Hour hand has been repaired. Step train with recoil escapement movement fastened to the case with screws on spacer blocks. The movement also has screw hole for fastening the movement to the case with a center screw, but it is not fastened that way. The type of crazing on the dial tends to indicate it is an old repaint; in any case the signature has likely been strengthened. Finial is not original. Ht 30 1/4"

Atkins, Whiting & Co., Bristol, Conn., "Octagon Drop XX Regulator" with type III (fancy frame) wagon spring, 30 day, time only movement in a rosewood veneered case with ripple molding around the top, c1855
CONDITION: the case retains its original finish and original ivory knobs and has minor veneer flakes above 10 and on lower left side. The dial is probably an early 20th century repaint now signed "Joseph Ives, New York", who invented the wagon spring mechanism. There is minor touch up to the lower glass. Please see Brooks Palmer "The Book of American Clocks", fig 239 for this exact clock and also "The Clocks of Irenus Atkins" by Phil Gregory, page 66. Ht 25" Ives licensed the use of his wagon spring to Atkins & Whiting (1850-1855), and to Atkins Clock Mfg. Co. (1855-1858). In 1858 Ives forbid the latter firm to use his wagon spring clock. Presumably all the examples manufactured after the new firm Atkins Clock Co. was formed in 1859 had only the fusee movement for their 30-day models. The signature on this dial is spurious. The dials on these were never signed, though because of this clock's photo being published 60 years ago, this signature has wrongly been put on many repainted dials of this model. (C. Bailey, 2011)

Self-Winding Clock Co. large brass and wood public gallery clock, c1925
CONDITION: The consigner reports that this heavy patriotic case was in the Massachusetts Statehouse. The thick cast front and sides are brass, attached to a wood backboard. Note that the patina is darker than appears in the photo. Some decorative ring is missing from the dial center, since we see three empty holes and the trace of a circle. The signed movement, No. 27069, clearly has not been used in some time, and we have not attempted to connect dry cells to it. The pendulum stick is broken and the bob is now absent. When restored, this will be an imposing historical time piece. As a further note, this model was offered in Self-Winding trade catalogs. It was the "Massachusetts" model and shown in LY, American Clocks Vol. 2 p. 271. The one in Ly has different hands, but I'm sure the hands are correct on this one in the sale. Ht 25"

The large twin-spring movement drives the hands and the lower unit, and it will need service. Very heavy! Ht 36"
