This New Haven “kitchen” or shelf clock, was made around the 1880s or 1890s. It originally had an alarm, which has been removed. The dial has a large center opening for the alarm set disc.
The oak case is 22 1/8 inches tall and 14 inches wide. The painted dial has a 5 inch minute track, and the minute hand is 2 1/2 inches in diameter.
Repair job 6029. Pivots polished, 14 bushings, reduce the time winding square slightly to fit the same key as the strike winding square.

I recently purchased one of these (repair job 6029). It was missing the trip wire for the alarm which I manufactured and installed. Is there something missing that should stop the alarm bell from winding all the down or is that simply how it works?
I was able to get it running and it has been eight days since I sat it. It has only gained about 00:30-00:45 seconds.
