regulator. Both the movement and dial are signed Tiffany and Co. This is a regulator of the highest quality, with an Ellicott type pendulum with fine adjustment for temperature compensation via the threaded balls on either side of the pendulum. Moreover, there is a fine gear segment which extends into the glass covered bob, showing changes in temperature. A central index helps visually to see the amount of correction taking place. The large porcelain dial is in good condition, and with open Brocot escapement and original hands. Case with original gilding and beveled glass. A similar clock sold recently in a London saleroom for $10,000. Height 19 inches
