LOUIS DELPHIN ODOBEY (CADET MODEL), JURA, FRANCE, 1897

Three train with rack & snail quarter striking. Cast iron, flatbed frame, pinwheel escapement, Harrison style maintaining power.  One second pendulum with wooden rod. 19"h x 38.5"w x 20"d (without bells).

This restoration project was a real challenge as the clock was very oxidized and the final finish I wanted to achieve was quite high. I've promised myself not to take on another clock in such deplorable condition. A set of tuned bells were fitted on a completely removable frame and connected to the original hammer pulls.
