• 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!

Hi, John, welcome to the message board. The only way to identify the maker of a French clock is if the movement is signed. Look closely on the back of the movement. If it has a bell, take off the bell to see what is under it. Many are not signed.
