• Upcoming updates
    Over the next couple of weeks we will be performing software updates on the forum. These will be completed in small steps as we upgrade individual software addons. You might occasionally see a maintenance message that will last a few minutes at most.

    If we anticipate an update will take more than a few minutes, we'll put up a notice with estimated time.

    Thank you!

    Russian wristwatch

    Fellow Members, I am a clock collector.(sic) I don't know about much about watches, particularly wristwatches. While checking out an antique shop today, I observed a wristwatch with a Russian name. The tag on the wristwatch stated it was a 17 jeweled Russian paratrooper watch. The watch's...

    Waterbury markings on movement

    Thank you for the quick reply Steven. Yes, the seller has posted a picture of the movement and states no markings on the movement. The clock is an identical eight day version of the Tran Duy Ly's 30 hour version in his Waterbury Book on page 402, clock #1482. I already have an eight version of...

    Waterbury markings on movement

    Fellow Collectors: I am considering purchasing an older Waterbury mantel clock and it appears to be all original (as the seller claims) however, the clock had an eight day movement which is "UMARKED" which makes me suspicious. I have at least 10 Waterbury older clocks, even one with a Jerome...

    Swarovski watch

    Doug, Thank yopu for your information. I have since learned that Swarovski is better known for crystal items, not watches. The back of the watch states 'SWISS MADE?' Maybe this is why I am a clock collector?????? Thanks again. Bob Mills

    Dear watch collectors: I have been a clock collector with NAWCC since 1972. I do not have any knowledge about watches. My daughter has just informed me that she purchased a Piazza Lady white crystal style wristwatch made by The Swarovski Crystal Company, Swiss made. I have never heard of this...

    Edward K. Jones Bristol Conneticut WOOD MOVEMENT

    Dwalker: I don't remember the pertinent characteristics of the front plate picture of the wooden movement of the Jones clock as it appeared on Ebay. In the 1980 Bulletin, whole number 208, part 1, Snowden Taylor devised an elaborate scheme to associate Terry type movements with makers and users...

    Edward K. Jones Bristol Conneticut WOOD MOVEMENT

    Dwaker: If this is the Edward K. Jones clock that recently sold on Ebay, I believe the works that were shown is a Terry type movement (very poor condition). Mentioned in Bulletin, (1996), # 305, page 798, Snowden Taylor states that Edward K. Jones made Terry type wooden works for Henry C. Smith...

    Ogee weight driven movements

    Mary Ellen: Since you live in MA, check with the Chapter #8 web site and attend one of their meetings. I almost positive you will fine an Ogee movement for sale. The weights, and other accessories can be purchased their also or from TimeSavers clock parts store. Good luck. Bob Mills

    Clock supplies

    Fellow Members: I am trying to purchase 3-5/8 inch (minute hand) set of Maltese hands for a Waterbury 7-3/8 inch dial. Checked Timesavers catalogue. They don't offer that large size. Does anyone know of another clock supply house with a more comprehensive stock of items. Thank you for your time...
