I’m placing an order for a replacement 341-020/11 cm Hermle movement. My existing movement mounts to the clock face using two metal brackets on the right and left sides of the movement (each bracket extends from the top to the bottom on each side, has 4 mounting holes used for fastening to the clock face, and is just under 4″ long x 5/8″ deep). The ends of the brackets have nuts holding them directly to the front corners of the movement. I don’t see any matching clock mounting brackets on your website (your RC23 is similar, but mine are not curved), but I assume I can just move my two brackets from my old movement to the new one. If this is incorrect, please let me know. I did see your admonition to not unfasten all 4 corners simultaneously to prevent the movement from falling apart.

My clock has MSU 06 K 116CM movement, is the KSU-78, 116CM a good replacement and will it fit without modifications?

James,

I ordered a pendulum a while back but the pendulum doesn’t swing correctly to engage the clock and keep it running. I believe it needs the smaller dial on the pendulum. Right now I have a 10 1/2 dial not but I believe I need to move down to the 8 1/2. Is this a logical assumption?

I received my order yesterday, 3/22/24, Order number 357534, I ordered a Hermle 2215 replacement. The shaft is to short. On my Hermle I have no threads to measure, I went with the product titled Hermle replacement. It is the incorrect replacement. Not sure what I need. The hole on the face of the clock is 1/2″ thick. I need to return this and get the correct one. What is the correct one?

I was looking at ordering an Urgos Lyre Clock Pendulum. Would those be considered “modified pendulums” and non returnable?

I am interested in ordering some cuckoo parts, the hands I believe are correct for the clock, other than what if the minute hand “square” hole does not fit the clock I have. It appears to be a Post 50’s clock, no real markings except the made in germany stamping and an “Hu407a” stamped on the inside. All I would need would be to exchange the hands if they don’t fit for ones that do if necessary. Is that possible?

I received my order today. My order number is 0257769. I received an electric motor, item code MVT790CMBATAAT The clock movement is electric, does it have battery option. The invoice has 1 pack of hardware listed Item code HD13456F, This item was not in the box I received. I probably have to reorder the clock movement motor that uses a battery. Thank you for your concern in this matter

I recently bought a convex glass order #300570. The glass was slightly bigger than expected 5 1/2″ actual diameter of 5 9/16″. In reality, what I need now that I have made a more careful measurement is 5 3/8″ What can be done?

I have a non-working grandfather (mother?) clock, and have been told that the movement I have is worn out.
It is marked451-050H and a second set of markings 114cm over a line above the number 60.
Is this all I need to buy a replacement unit?

Hello, just received the Urgos UW66020 to replace anUW66009. The suspension post is much higher that the original on UW66009 and collides with the chimes on my clock. . Are there instructions on how to convert using the included suspension spring?

Regarding order 23876. The 6.6 lbs. weight is only 5.2 lbs. so the chimes on my clock did not work. I would like to exchange these for a set that are of proper weight. Regards, Michael Impey

I recently inherited a Ridgeway “Fairfax” 2048 grandfather clock. It is missing 2 chime bars (should have 12) – would the Grandfather Clock Chime Block Back-Strike – 12 rods 26 inch work in this clock?

Received battery mechanism of
Order #217610
I measured my actual grandfather mechanical mounting post length and is exactly 22/32” or 11/16” to where it ends the far threaded part> The mechanical one received is shortened

What should I do to return this one and get the right 11/16” long post in exchange

Your prompt attention will be appreciated

Also could you give me some advice of how could I hang the chains and weights in the clock furniture?

Hello I ordered and received an anniversary clock glass dome 5 1/2 by 10 inches, and I actually needed a glass dome one size smaller for my Timex anniversary clock. I am hoping this exchange can go smoothly. do I have to include a check for shipping or can it come out of the difference of costs between the larger dome and the smaller dome? Please Advise.

I ordered the internal parts #1151-050H and received a part #1151-050H however the parts are not the same. The handle to change the chimes – sticks out and hits the back of the face plate. Had to cut the arm – (FIX). The new part did not come with bars to hold done the hammers (Not that big of a deal) – The major issue is the arm the holds the pendulum. It sticks out on the new piece -1 3/4 inches and old piece is 1 Inch. The pendulum hits the bars and will not swing.

I need a clock key for a anniversary clock. . My broken key is double ended and marked 00 and 8. I would like to order either a single winding key or a double ended if you stock it. I do not know the country of manufacture. The winding peg measures 0.78″

Hi. I need to know exactly the replacement size for an insert clock. It is a small Waterford clock. The hole measures about 1&3/8″. The clock itself is a Tochigi Tokei from Japan and says Waterford Crystal under the X11 and Quartz over the V1. It is a silver outline on a white/cream background w/ Roman numerals. I’m simply looking for a replacement that will fit. The new battery won’t work because the sweep second hand gets caught on the long hand.

Hi, I have a Seth Thomas grandfather clock. When I was winding it a couple of weeks ago, the middle weight somehow let go and the weight crashed to the bottom of the clock. The end cap came off the sleeve and is now bent. I could probably straighten it but it looks like it attached to the inside by rivet or something. There are no grooves and it isn’t made to screw back together. It measures 9 1/4” in length with a 2” diameter and total weight is just about 5lbs. Do you perhaps sell a sleeve or full weight replacement with these dimensions?

Thank you,
Tasha

I am trying to order new works for 2 mantle clocks. The “old works” has the following information. Mason and Sullivan Co. 141-070 29 cm 130.36 no jewels. I have found Hermle clock movement 141-070. Do these include the key and pendulum? I am researching this for my father. From what i have read so far it appears the keys are easy to order because they are mostly standardized. He has a pendulum from the previous works that we are hoping will work but needs one new pendulum. I cannot find a brass pendulum that is for a 29 cm works. I am not sure it is even necessary. Any information will be appreciated.
