German Wall
What is this Antique Wall Clock?
I’ve been digging through my old stuff and have found this old white ceramic german wall clock. The numbers are written right on the front with no cover. The numbers are brown. It seems to be from the 60′s.
On the back, bottom left hand side there is the number 11
On the back, bottom right hand side there is the letter H inside a circle an just below that there seems to be the number 499.
Also on the back on the little metal casing holding in the mechanicals there is a number scratched on or stamped on saying: E265J or it might be T.
It is about 20 cm x20 cm with curved edges. It is wider at the top than at the bottom.
Does anyone know what the name of this clock? And where i can find out some information about it?
Thankyou
In May of 1714 representations from Her Majesty’s Fleet, Merchants and Merchant-Men demanded the Government encourage the solution of the Longitude problem and in July of that year the Longitude Act was passed offering up to £20,000 for a method of determining Longitude at Sea.
In the mid 1720′s Yorkshire born John Harrison started work on what would be the first of his clocks, H1 that would work on board ships and so solve the Longitude problem. In 1772 after a lifetimes work, culminating in the watch H4, John Harrison was paid the final balance of the £20,000 reward.
In 1999 Sinclair Harding started work on a clock in homage to John Harrison. Nearly 5 years in the making the Sinclair Harding H1 is a wonderful combination of art and fascinating mechanics, all finished to an exquisite standard.
Approximately 3/4 (24″ wide x 18″ deep x 18″ high) of the original size, this still impressive piece puts on show Harrison’s inventions, from the simple yet significant roller mounting of the Spring barrel arbor through the elegance of the Grasshopper escapement to the to the mind-boggling complexity of the Grid Iron compensation mechanism.
i think youre clock may be one of the replicas of this one worth very much…

The German Wall $90 When the Berlin Wall came down suddenly in 1989, it marked a rupture of global significance. Almost overnight, November 9 became one of the most significant dates in global collective memory, as well as a signal event in German national history. This book examines the consequences of the fall of the Wall: the physical barrier, its demise, and how it has been mediated in film and television; how the city and nation that had been torn asunder now struggle to reunite; how old and new minorities are being socially and politically integrated; and how a new European identity emerges in the post-Wall era. |
