BRAND-NEW GERMAN HERMLE MOVEMENT – JUST INSTALLED – MUST HEAR. This antique Seth Thomas wall clock has been professionally upgraded with a brand-new German-made Hermle mechanical movement, newly installed and fully tested. The clock is running perfectly, keeping accurate time and delivering a clean, confident bim-bam strike. The original antique case has been carefully preserved and thoughtfully paired with a modern precision movement for long-term reliability and daily enjoyment-a rare and highly desirable combination. ? Chime Demonstration Video (Highly Recommended). Must hear to fully appreciate the tone and character. This striking octagonal Seth Thomas wall clock exemplifies classic American clockmaking, featuring a richly aged hardwood case, elegant Roman-numeral dial, and a warm three-rod bim-bam strike that sounds the hour with clarity and restraint. To eliminate the maintenance concerns typically associated with century-old movements, the original mechanism has been professionally replaced with a brand-new German mechanical movement, making this clock as dependable as it is beautiful. An ideal choice for collectors, designers, or anyone seeking an authentic antique wall clock that is ready to hang, reliable, and worry-free. Movement & Chime. Movement: Brand-new Hermle 131-030 German mechanical movement (just installed). Strike Type: 3-rod bim-bam hour strike on resonant steel rods. Wind: Mechanical, key-wound. Chime Character: Warm, dignified, and far more restrained than Westminster. Accuracy: Excellent – modern tolerances with traditional mechanical charm. This new movement provides smooth operation, strong strike action, and many years of dependable service with routine care. Case & Dial. Classic octagonal wooden case with beautifully aged original finish. Ornately carved lower door with floral motifs. Seth Thomas signed Roman-numeral dial (original style). Glass bezel and lower pendulum window. Well-balanced proportions suitable for traditional, transitional, or historic interiors. The clock presents exceptionally well and has the visual presence expected of a high-quality Seth Thomas wall clock. Brand-new German movement professionally installed. Fully tested and working perfectly. Case in very attractive antique condition with light, age-appropriate wear. Dial clean, legible, and highly decorative. Pendulum and strike functioning exactly as intended. This clock has been carefully prepared and tested to arrive ready to enjoy immediately. Height: 24 inches. Width: 14 inches. Depth: 5 inches. Perfect scale for living rooms, studies, libraries, offices, or hallways. Why This Clock Stands Out. Authentic antique Seth Thomas wall clock. Brand-new German mechanical movement. Bim-bam strike – elegant, unobtrusive, and refined. Excellent craftsmanship and visual balance. No immediate servicing required. This is not a project clock or lightly serviced example – it is a turn-key antique wall clock, built to be enjoyed daily. Professionally packed to ensure safe transit. Setup instructions included. Mechanical clocks benefit from periodic oiling every few years. Clocks like this are increasingly difficult to find: a genuine antique Seth Thomas case paired with a brand-new, high-quality German mechanical movement. It offers the romance and presence of an antique with the confidence and usability modern buyers expect. A superb addition to any refined home or serious clock collection. Brand-new German mechanical movement (just installed). Clean, resonant bim-bam strike.
