The 10th edition of the Horolovar 400 Day Clock Repair Guide was published in 1991. It was only a minor update to the previous guide published in 1984. Since it’s 1991 release, independent research has uncovered a wealth of information about the early 400 day clock industry and discovered a great number of inaccuracies and omissions in the guide. Now as 2021 approaches, with the bulk of the historical and identification information contained in the guide now over 36 years out of date, it is past time for a major revision. But let's face it, a revised repair guide is not likely to happen any time soon. It's been discussed on this board since 2001. Now with the death of Chris Nimon and the fate of Horolovar unknown we may never see one.
I've been thinking that it would be beneficial to the 400 day clock community to compile the known corrections for errors in the 10th edition of the repair guide along with some "important" additional information into some form of single supplement.
Do you think this would be useful, and how would you like to see it?
Thoughts?
