The Hatahaway Wall Hung Skeleton Mechanical Clock is a stunning mechanical weight driven wall clock in an antique design, with an all metal construction. It features rounded columns at the corners and a roman numeral dial.

The weight driven passing bell strike movement hits a Pewter-tone bell. The Pewter-tone bell has a genuine striking hammer which strikes the outside of the bell.

The weight and pendulum come in an antique styled design also.

The clock mechanism is weight driven and needs to be drawn up by hand every 7 days.

The genuine bell movement strikes every hour with a fully visible polished brass mechanism. The cogs of the mechanism can be viewed moving from the side or front of the clock in harmony with the pendulum.

The dial has black roman numerals and hands with a speckled gold face on a solid antiqued styled metal casting.

The dial is 14cm wide. The top of the clock to the bottom of the pendulum is 70cm. The top of the clock should be fixed approx 2m from the floor so that the weight can extend fully.

We think this clock would make a great addition to your home or as a gift and really emphasizes what a classical German Skelelton wall clock should be.
