Interesting how the old folks built clocks. We are still getting these old Dutch clocks in for repairs. Most of them are well worn, after more than 100 years of service. https://www.facebook.com/share/r/16CgFKKe2X/

📜 : 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝’𝐬 𝐎𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤

🕰️ 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐲 𝐂𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤 – 𝐞𝐬𝐭. 𝟏𝟑𝟖𝟔

Did you know the oldest working mechanical clock in the world still ticks today, and it’s over 600 years old?

Built around 𝟏𝟑𝟖𝟔, the 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐲 𝐂𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 is a masterpiece of medieval engineering. Unlike modern clocks, it has no face or hands, it was designed to chime the hours for the monks.

It operates with a verge escapement and foliot (early time-regulating mechanisms), and runs completely without electricity, just gravity, weights, and centuries of craftsmanship.

💬 What fascinates us most is how this clock is a true symbol of enduring craftsmanship, a value we hold close here at Reliable Clocks.

These two magnificent 𝟏𝟖𝟕𝟎 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐬 were originally crafted in 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐇𝐚𝐠𝐮𝐞, 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝, as part of the 𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐜 𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 of 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐠'𝐬 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧.

Now 𝐟𝐮𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐫𝐞𝐟𝐮𝐫𝐛𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝, they are on their way back to their rightful home, 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐠 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, where they have 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐝𝐥𝐲 𝐡𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝟏𝟗𝟓𝟖.

❄ It is a 𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐝𝐚𝐲 for a delivery, but what 𝐚𝐧 𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐫 it is to be part of 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐩𝐢𝐞𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲’𝐬 𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲!

🕰✨ Rediscover Time's Elegance! ✨🕰

Step into a journey through time with us at Reliable Clocks and Clock Repairs! 🌟 Our latest video unveils the enchanting transformation of a longcase movement from the 1850s. From its weathered state to its glorious revival, witness the magic of restoration unfold before your eyes.

🔍 Explore the meticulous process of disassembly, cleaning, and rejuvenation as our expert artisans breathe new life into this historic marvel. 🛠✨

Here are some before and after pictures of an early 1900's Gustav Becker grandfather movement. The clock movements are stripped and then cleaned in an industrial size ultrasonic cleaner.
We then inspect and repair worn plate bushes.
The gears and pivots are polished on a clockmaker’s lathe and plate bushes are polished with smooth broaches and pith-wood.
It is the assembled and lubricated with clock synthetic clock oil
Lastly the movement is setup on a test bench where we readjust the clock beat and the chimes & strike.
The movement has to run for minimum 24 hours in which time we monitor it's performance and adjust the running speed.

This clock at Masimbambane College in Orange Farm, Soweto has not run for at least eight years. We are replacing the movement and hands with a BODET gps system. The new movements is connected to a gps antenna which constantly checks the time displayed and compares it to the time-signal it receives from a satellite. If there is a difference due to load shedding, it will automatically adjust the time on the analog clock.
