• 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!

    Chelsea ships bell case

    Thanks for the information, I reached out to Mr. Taube and based on the markings on the case he indicated I needed a vintage movement for this Desk clock and that it was from 1917. Can you tell me what years Chelsea made the 4L movement and if it was used for various size dials. I will reach...

    Looking for a Zodiac Autographic parts list

    Thanks for the link, I must admit that I confused about the information provided regarding Hands ? x 1.30 x 0.90 x 0.22mm would this be helpful for determining the correct second hand. Also if I locate a vintage or NOS crown what size would I need.

    Looking for a Zodiac Autographic parts list

    I picked up a Zodiac that needed a little TLC. Missing the original crown and a proper second hand. I'm not sure what the proper part are. The 17 jewel movement is stamped 1420 and is an automatic. Any assistance would be appreciated. Gary

    Welch Verdi - Pendulum assembly

    I see what you are talking about. Someone at some time took a thin threaded rod (it looks identical to the one used to adjust the pendulum bob) flatened one end and then riveted the spring onto that end. This threaded rod appears to be a slightly larger diameter than the spring leaders in my...

    Welch Verdi - Pendulum assembly

    That is a very nice looking clock. Unable to tell what the top end of the pendulum looks like though. The clock I am working on just doesn't look correct as it appears as if someone stuck a kitchen clock leader into the top of the pendulum. I am thinking the set up should look more like a...

    Is this eye candy or am I missing something.

    I have a similiar clock that I purchased at a resale shop. My clock is complete except missing the pendulum bob. I think what I need will have a hook on the end but I don't know any dimensions (length) or weight. I am looking for a source for a pendulum too if anyone has a suggestion. Any...

    Well I finally found some time ( no pun intended) to try this procedure and I am stuck. Complication One The original suspension spring I was going to replace has pins through both the top and the bottom brass plates of the spring.

    Kundo Electronic suspension spring replacement

    I know enough about clocks to know I need help on this one. About a month ago I posted a request for assistance to help my Kundo electronic (ATO style) clock keep better time. Since the pendulum wobbled it was suggested that I replace the suspension spring. I now have the part and I need a...

    Kundo Electronic: Not keping time

    I am still losing about 4 minutes every 12 hours- it seems the weight just doesn't make that much difference- I have ordered a new suspension spring so maybe that will make a noticeable difference
