Vintage Howard Miller Full 4/4 Westminster Chiming Table Clock.
A beautiful, solid brass clock by Howard Miller. Measures 9” tall and 9” wide, featuring a gold face with Roman numerals on white enamel. The movement is a vintage Howard Miller 340-020 from 1977. The logo and model are punched, rather than new laser etched models.
It has a floating wheel escapement rather than a pendulum and can sit in “less than perfectly level” places and still run well. It is also very accurate.
The 4/4 Westminster chime plays a portion of the Westminster tune at the quarter, half and 3/4 hour and then plays the entire song at the top of the hour followed by a chime counting the current number of hours.
Winding key is included to wind the three barrels once every 8 days. It should be habit to wind it every 7 days, but runs an extra day in case you forget.
There is a lever in the back to silence the chimes if desired.
Parts of the case have developed a bit of patina. Please see pictures for details.
