LARGE OAK WATERBURY
TWO WEIGHT WALL REGULATOR
CIRCA 1903 REGULATOR
#18
(ITEM # 251)
THIS HANDSOME WALL REGULATOR
NUMBER 18 WAS MADE BY THE WATERBURY CLOCK COMPANY IN 1903.
I PURCHASED THE CLOCK
FROM A COLLECTOR IN WISCONSIN AND IT PURPORTEDLY CAME FROM ON OLD CLOCK
SHOP.
THE CASE IS OF OAK AND
APPEARS TO BE ALL ORIGINAL (HAS THE ORIGINAL GLUE BLOCKS). THE CASE DID
HAVE A FRESH COAT OF VARNISH PUT ON A NUMBER OF YEARS AGO.
THE MOVEMENT HAS A DEAD BEAT
ESCAPEMENT, RETAINING POWER AND A SOLID FRAME MOVEMENT.THE MOVEMENT RUNS
FOR EIGHT DAYS WITH ITS TWO
ORIGINAL GRAIN PAINTED WEIGHTS.
IT HAS A VERY NICE DIAL
WITH A SECONDS BIT. THERE IS SOME MINOR FLAKING ON THE DIAL, AND THIS APPEARS
TO BE QUITE COMMON WITH OLD WATERBURY CLOCKS.
