Waterbury Clock Co. “Regulator No. 67”, ca. 1906.  This is an impressive time-only, two-weight wall clock, 50 inches long in mahogany with an old finish.  The large door glass is certainly old and the wood strips holding it in place are original.  The 12-inch dial has been repainted with the Waterbury logo.  The hands are brass-plated and correct to this model, likely original.  The A-frame brass plate movement with deadbeat escapement and retaining power is signed and running after having been oiled.  The two-part pendulum stick is easy to remove for transport and is correct for Waterbury clocks.  The bob original, the brass weights correct, although you sometimes see this clock with flat iron weights.  No label.  Horton’s sold one in January 2019 for $500.  $500-$750.
