This is a 1922 Gustav Becker grandfather clock with the "bim-bam" chimes. The chimes in this clock a very hauntingly beautiful, and the clock itself is quite rare and highly collectable. Gustav Becker made many clocks in the early 20th century going into the start of the Art Deco period. His company and designs were bought by Junghans Clock Company (who was the largest maker of clocks in the world at the time) and continued producing clocks under Becker's name well into the 1930s. You, sir, own a very prized timepiece indeed.
Yes Are Deco, anywhere from around 1920-1940ish. It could be one of about a dozen or more popular makers like Haller, Junghans, Becker, FHS, Mauthe, Badische, etc.
These old German grandfather clocks sound like everyone wants their clocks to sound. Yours sounds and looks awesome.

Very beautiful clock. I’ve always wanted a clock that has a bum bam chimes.
I have a square one I am getting soon, sounds like my house!
oh my gosh, my grandparents had one just about like this one.
Good Halloween clock, from the sound.
@LANDENS CLOCK,GAMING,AND ROAD SIGNS CHANNEL!!!!!!! Hahaha, 3 years later
@LANDENS CLOCK,GAMING,AND ROAD SIGNS CHANNEL!!!!!!! nah, just your imagination
What brand is it
The mechanism.for the chime needs a little tweaking. The low note should end the strike sequence, the clock is so pretty!
Well, I wondered about that myself.
Where can I get this from
Sorry, I do not remember the manufacturer off hand. This is an old clock. 1920s vintage. Seen many around online similar to it.
I found the exact same clock and it’s arriving on Sunday
Well I would say you are very resourceful then. I have been told this clock is chiming backwards, so I’d be curious to see what yours does.
Mine one does the same as yours

JC The only marking on it is two thin crossed arrows on the movement.
@@N4JAB The 2 Crossed Arrows is the trademark for the Hamburg American Clock company (HAC)
activetruman I watch your videos
After you wind your clock, do the weights descend at the same time or does one seem to go faster down than the other?
@@Beatboxboxzytvv I have actually had this happen occasionally. I suspect it needs a good cleaning and service.
Sound like a horror
