Wm. Gilbert Clock Co. “Regulator No. 14”, ca. 1901.  Not a fan of dark wood (#26)? Here is a similar clock that came only in oak, also 50 inches tall.  The case was refinished some time ago and looks good. The door glass is old, the signed paper dial shows wear, the hands are old and correct to this model.  The dial bezel is nickel as is the weight pulley and weight; the pendulum bob brass. The stick has been broken and repaired.  The time-only movement with deadbeat escapement and retaining power is unsigned; it is running without issue.  No label to be found.  Horton’s sold one in January 2018 for $550.  $500-$750.
