Clockwise Antique Clocks

Description

Clockwise is proud to present for your consideration a stunning example of a superb RAF eight day chain-driven fusee clock made by F W Elliott. This is a genuine example of a fine clock which carries its serial number of 4359 and is stamped with the date 1938 to the backplate. Genuine examples of this clock are becoming increasingly hard to find, especially in this condition. The rectangular plate anchor escapement movement has just benefitted from a full overhaul so the clock enjoys a three year guarantee.

The lovingly restored 14 inch dial carries the RAF insignia and is in superb condition, complimented by original spade hands behind a heavy original spun brass bezel which retains its original tab to be locked in place by the smaller tab to the rear of the case frontage.

The mahogany case is of a standard two piece pegged construction with a solid mahogany fascia attached to its original rear box. There is a side inspection door and the rear box contains a lower door with its original working lock and key

Ultimately this is a lovely piece of war-time history in excellent condition and ready for its new home.

Clockwise specialises in longcase and bracket clocks and with global clients from the world of business, film, sport, royalty and aristocracy - yet more than happy with traditional clients - Clockwise has an unrivalled reputation for excellence and superb service.
