I am NOTa retailer.

I am anantique clock collector wishing to reduce my clock collection. This clock comes from my collection & hasbeen running successfully for several years with no difficulties. It has been tested prior to thisoffering. Clock set-up to establish thecorrect “beat” is paramount to the clock’s operation, accomplished throughplacement & leveling (sometimes with rotating the movement while in theclock case). Additionally, temperature& humidity may affect it over time as well. Do not over wind the clock. Lastly,I cannot not guarantee the clock’s operation once shipped. I do take pride as a seller and buyer ofthese clocks.

Allshipments will be wrapped in bubble wrap (key & pendulum wrappedseparately) set tightly into box containing Styrofoam peanuts, tapped shut& then placed into second box (as may be necessary) filled with padding foradded protection, taped shut on all sides.

Please askany questions regarding this item; responses will be made as quickly aspossible.
