Antique American Clocks JANUARY 2025
142. $250
New Haven Clock Co. “Regulator, C.C.”, ca. 1886. This is a hard model to find; there are no listings on LiveAuctioneers and only three on the Antique Clocks Identification and Price
Guide, going back to 1999. No sales since 2009 that I can find. The 40-inch walnut case has an old finish with good patina;
I think the top and bottom finials may be replacements, but they accurately match the finials shown in the catalog illustration (Ly,New Haven Clocks & Watches, page 153). The door glass is period and clearly a New Haven glass, although it is not the one
shown in the catalog illustration. There is some lifting and minor losses to the colored tablet. The dial holds old/original
paint in good condition, with proper hands. The 8-day, time-only movement is stamped with the New Haven logo; it is running
nicely. No maker’s label, but a jeweler’s label inside. This is a rare and attractive clock. $250–$500.
