Rare Vintage French Style Mystery 8 Day Waterwheel Rolling Ball Industrial Clock
Located in Danville, CA
For your consideration is a mystery Water Wheel Industrial Ball Bearing Clock. It comes with an 8 day movement and keeps very good time!! This water wheel industrial clock has a big paddle wheel on the right side which hold a a set of small steel ball bearings. The weight of these balls is propelling the clock. Please note the time shows a thin glass dial with Roman numerals. Every 60 seconds, a small ball drops down from the water wheel onto the track where the steel ball rolls to the left side. The bucket catches the ball and move it up one by one. Every 60 seconds, a steel ball drops from the left bucket on the channel to the waterwheel. Then the bucket drops down and go around to catch another ball bearing. The loops goes on as the clock keeps on running. The buckets chain is made of brass and nicely done. The power is received from an 8 day fusee movement inside the solid hardwood base, red ash. And the clock has a pendulum on the back to regulate the timing. The whole animation of this clock is just like a waterwheel except it's ball bearing "flowing" through channels and there is a clock on the big water wheel. The clock is protected by a glass dome. It measure 17-3/4" tall, 17-3/4" wide, and 8-3/4" deep including the glass dome. I'm sure this clock will upscale any clock store...

Japanese Pedestal Clock
Located in New Orleans, LA
This magnificent Dai-dokei (pedestal clock) is one of the finest and rarest examples of Japanese horological artistry. These clocks were often used to adorn castles, corridors and prominent entrance halls, and for distinguished citizens during the Edo period, they were essential arbiters of daily life. Soon after their creation, clockmakers realized that this pedestal design was too delicate for Japan's earthquake-prone landscape. That this clock and lacquer case have endured centuries of earthquakes and still remains in pristine condition is miraculous.
The clock features a weight-driven brass two-train movement that is equipped with a verge escapement and a short pendulum, which regulate the clock's timekeeping. The striking train is controlled by a count wheel and indicates the hours and half hours with a pleasant chime from a bell. The brass dial plate is adorned with intricate floral motifs that add a touch of elegance. At the center of the plate is a rotating chapter ring, which is divided into 24 silver movable chapters — 12 for the hours and 12 for the half hours. The pieced blued steel hand remains fixed while the chapter ring rotates — a traditional Japanese innovation — allowing for precise timekeeping. In addition to its timekeeping features, the plate includes two apertures located in the lower corners that show the sixty days of the Japanese month.
The clock's case features meticulous details, including a black lacquered wooden case embellished with lavish mother-of-pearl vine...
