Waterbury #60 Pinwheel Regulator HELP!

[job401@gmail.com]

I need to know the size of the finials, top and bottom, to have replacements made. It would be helpful to know the size of the holes, into which the finials are inserted. Could someone who owns one of these clocks take measurements and respond?

Thanks in advance for youe help!

i'm confused… If you are missing the finials aren't you looking at the holes? And able to measure them?

I don't have posession of the clock yet, but I know there are no finials, top and bottom. I have a someone ready to make them, but he needs to know the length of them, and the size of the holes they fit in.

I’ve got the No. 61 which is the floor model of the 60. Just got a stool and got up there to pull one off but I can’t budge either one of them! Sorry man.

I would just tell him to make the dowels 3/8 inch. You can always grind them to fit with a Dremel .

why not wait until you get the clock and then send the exact measurement?

maybe MQ32shooter can caliper the other measurements for you (overall height, height of each section, width of each section) and provide some straight-on finial photos?

Here are two views of the upper finials. I cannot measure, nor remove them, as I sold the clock. If you are good with graphics you should be able to determine dimensions that are close.

Thanks for your reply. Fortrunately, the seller found reproductions on top of the clock!
