C.1905, Waterbury, Regulator No. 20, in oak and in generally good original condition.

The bottom has had a little restoration and been reglued in place. The weights are rectangular cast iron and there is plenty of room in the channel for them, but they sometimes catch on the inside edge of the bowtie as they descend. So you will need to either put a small pine ramp just above the bowtie, or use 2 smaller weights. The movement wants to run willingly, so I am sure it would still run fine with smaller weights. Modern regulator decal can be easily removed if it bothers you. The old finish has turned a bit dark; clock retains original Waterbury label (with losses)and beat scale in case bottom. Height 38"
