Jahresuhrenfabrik Model No.228 Art Nouveau circa 1908

 I acquired this clock as can be seen in the images in a condition that left the movement glued solid with thick sticky dried oil almost tar like in appearence. The best thing about it was it was a complete clock with matching serial numbers on the movement and pendulum. It had a broken mainspring and some of the teeth on the barrel were bent and damaged where the mainspring had let go at some time in the past. 

  After stripping it down, cleaning and repairing, fitting a new Horolovar mainspring and suspension spring the clock came back to life once more. With a little bit of patience and setting up it once again looks great and  keeps very good time.
