• 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!

I have this clock which carries a logo with an inverted horseshoe with the letters CW inside. I believe it is by Carl Werner Uhrenfabrik.
I would like to get an approximate date for the movement if possible.
I have not seen a chime arrangement like this before and wonder whether it is common or not.
Also there is a grooved lever on the rear which looks as though it is designed to restrain the strike hammer and silence the strike. Is that right?

I don't know Carl Werner's movements under 1900 very well.
I believe that this movement was made in 1910+-.
Here are some cases with the same movements.

I believe that there were few such movements made.
Here's another movement from both sides:
