A spectacular Hermle FHS chiming mantle clock. This very sleek and stylish 20 inch by 9 inch wooden clock case with a bold boxy white/black face with gold accents was way ahead of its time. The FHS clock line sported a variety of these clocks that were separate and distinguished by varying degrees of size and face designs, and were, at the time, a fashion statement in technology and design. One thing I immediately noticed about this clock was the 4 chime bar and hammer assembly. It was unlike any other I've dealt with and that is a considerable statement given that I work on hundreds of clocks each year and have been doing so for well over a decade. I suppose if I were cornered and asked to mostly closely define it I would have to lean toward calling it a Bim Bam chime, however it is more involved than that and is pleasant to listen to. This clock took very little coaxing to get it started and has kept good time and chimed on queue for a couple of weeks now. I'm convinced that it will provide someone with many more years of enjoyment and good time keeping. I don't sell any clocks that I haven't 1st tested myself and feel confident that they will operate in a stable manner for the next owner. Please feel free to message me with any questions you might have about this clock prior to then end of the auction. Please bid with the confidence
