You and me both, brother!Fantastic clock! A Eureka is on my Bucket List for sure! I know nothing of these clocks, what is meant by "enameled shield"?
Regards,

janekp, thanks for posting your Eureka clock here. Actually there is a set of Eureka threads in this forum that can be found by clicking on the "Eureka" prefix name found at the beginning of any thread title that is related to the Eureka clock. It looks like this:I have not found anywhere "Post your Eureka Clock Here" therefore I intercede here some pics of my last purchase.
Eureka Clock two ball bearings ,enamelled shield 1,5V.mising glas dome,running.SN 2501 -1907 ?
SN 2501.
You definitely need to keep the original base. My suggestion was to find a dome large enough to fit over the entire clock including the brass base. I believe that one that is 10 inches diameter by 12 inches tall, with its own turned wood base would be large enough to hold the complete clock. Good luck with finding something appropriate.Thank you very much for a very comprehensive answer Mr Hubby.
I'm glad you slowly I am able to be set my first Eureka clock.
I have some glas dome at home so I'll try something fit.
I would rather keep the original brass base.
I was excited to read the information regarding the serial numbers for the Cromwell Eureka as I have both 2124 and 2125 serial numbers in my private collection.. Only one case design is known to have been made in a single run, being the No. 14 Cromwell English Lantern Clock model. To date, all of these that have been documented fall between serial numbers 2124 and 2247 inclusive, with no other models found within this series. This indicates that perhaps 150 of these were made in total.
Welcome to the NAWCC Message Board, and thanks for your message information. My response is somewhat tardy, but I think will answer your questions.I was excited to read the information regarding the serial numbers for the Cromwell Eureka as I have both 2124 and 2125 serial numbers in my private collection.
Were was this serial number info taken from?
I have 2 other Cromwell Eurekas with later numbers and are slightly different. The earlier numbers have the movements mounted to the dial while the later numbers are base mounted.
