Aftr watching this video, I was intrigued by the "anniversary clocks". I've done a bit of looking and finally decided to buy one for myself. Thank you for this video, I like your content.
hello we have one just like this but the winding mechanism cant be moved with the key in any direction. Feels like its not supposed to move its that stuck. With the clock and the key theres also a small oddly shaped metal piece available but i havent a clue what to do with it.
Perhaps you are right. I remember on their tenth anniversary, my mother gave her aunt and uncle an anniversary clock (not like the bona fide mechanical one which you showed, but a quartz battery powered one with a faux torsional pendulum).
I have a really old one that was restored many years ago i dont know if it works because i dont want to damage it any recommendations on what i should do before trying to run it?
Not really as long you dont move it unless it is locked and if you want to start it give the pendulum a gentle impuls in order to not damage the torsion spring. So if you want to start it just level it out like I showed and the gently start it up. Keep in mind even a not working one can work for a while because of the nature of the torsion spring but if it still works after 20min to half an hour it is probably okay.

They are very wonderful clocks. I hope you are going to have a lot of fun looking at your one soon.
Thank you for watching and for your nice comments.
Hello from Grenoble(France) I have the same, but not so easy..to find the good speed..Salute
Yes it is indeed very hard to make them run at the correct speed. But with time you can manage.

If you can't move it it's probably completely wound up. About the odly shaped metal piece I can't say much lot of clock parts are odly shaped.
Also called an "anniversary clock" because on their 25th anniversary, married couples received one.
Owh did not know that. I always thought it was called an anniversary clock because you would wind it once a year.

Actually you do need to wind it, otherwise it won't work at all, let alone a year.
Wow, I wonder how long it would run if you did wind it?😂
İyiki varsın
Yeah runs for a year but not with accuracy, once a month winding helps .
Normally they should be accurate, yours might need some maintenance.

Well you wind and than you dont for a year. And the clock will work for more than a year
