- I replaced the movement on this after searching for 5 years for a replacement movement. This is finally working again!
Bought the clock for $60 at Tom Harris Auctions (now closed) and the movement on eBay for $40.
That’s very nice and sounds great! I’m glad you were able to find a replacement movement.
Thank you. I’m very happy too.
Sounds like a Haller Movement on Whittington. I really like this clock
I really like the chimes on this one too. It’s nothing like I’ve ever heard.
@@samsclocks2084 From what Ive seen
Happy to see it going again!
Me too
I think it is a Hermle!❤
It’s urgos which is not as common
Hermle as far as I’m aware never made clocks with Winchester chimes
I’ve never seen a hermle with Winchester. I think urgos is the only modern German maker that used the chime.
The old movement you should fix and sell it I heard they are really rare and a restored movement can go for around up to 600 dollars
One day
Noice you could use hermle or kieninger movements but the urgos is no longer available though.
Thank you
Bro you didn’t even watch the vid 😂
@@samsclocks2084 you’re welcome
@@sickbro9494 I already know why people can’t make urgos movement anymore
You’re right that I could use hermle or Kieninger. But I bought this clock for the sole reason that it featured Winchester chimes. Hermle or kieninger never made a Winchester chime movement as far as I know. And conversion from urgos to hermle or any kind of brand conversion is not as simple as some think.
Though it would probably be thousands of dollars it could be possible to have hermle take a old patent and make the same movement brand new because hermle now owns urgos and all of its patents and old stock and everything urgos had
You could be right. Although just finding a used movement on eBay is much simpler.
@@samsclocks2084 it would be pretty rare but I’m sure a clock shop or eBay user out there has a old urgos movement with Winchester chimes like this one still new in the box just never used
