97cm Walnut 8 Day Mechanical Regulator Wall Clock With Piano Finish By AMS

A Traditional Wall Clock From The Black Forest

Nothing says timeless charm quite like this high quality traditional wall clock, designed by world class clock makers AMS from the Black Forest in Germany, where the company was established in 1776.

Measuring 97cm in height, this beautiful wall clock features an elegant silver coloured round dial with black roman numerals and neat black hands that instantly draw the eye. Rounding out the body of this fascinating clock is a traditional walnut stained case with a large front glass panel that allows high visibility into the movement. In addition, this clock has beautiful features including neat polished brass weights & a pendulum. Perhaps the most fascinating aspect of this beautiful clock is the long length of the pendulum which adds a beautiful effect to the overall design, creating a statement piece similar to that of a grandfather clock or floor standing clock without taking up as much space.

Chiming clocks such as this one typically chime the famous Westminster chime aka the Big Ben chime, however this can also be silenced manually should that be preferred. This particular model also features an automatic night off function, which will disengage the chiming through the evening, allowing you a sound sleep before recommencing again the next morning. As it is mechanically operated this is a pre-set time and requires the clock to be set in the correct 12 hour cycle. This exquisite clock also features a high quality 8 day running weight driven mechanism, meaning the clock only needs to be wound once every 8 days. 

As mechanical clocks often runs for 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for many years without stopping, it is highly recommended to get a service and a maintenance clean every 7 to 10 years. This should always be carried out by a qualified professional clockmaker.

This beautifully designed clock by AMS is aesthetically pleasing and represents a highly accurate timepiece, suitable for those looking for a traditional wall clock that is reliable, elegant and good at keeping time.

What is a Regulator Wall Clock?

A regulator wall clock is defined as a weight driven clock regulated by a swinging pendulum. This type of clock was invented in the late 1700’s, to improve the accuracy of spring wound clocks. Regulator wall clocks are available in both striking and chiming weight driven models, as well as highly accurate clocks that do not make a sound, and rather than winding a spring in the dial, the weights are wound similar to that of a grandfather clock. Some models are both weight and spring wound, so the weight delivers constant power to the pendulum to keep the time, whilst the chimes and strike are operated by springs.

Mechanical weight driven regulators are beautiful clocks that are often larger in size, ranging from 900mm to 1200mm in height, creating a statement piece similar to that of a grandfather clock or floor standing clock without taking up as much space.

Why Choose A Traditional Wall Clock?

Both elegant and timeless in design, traditional wall clocks add a touch of nostalgia and old world charm, and can make a beautiful addition to any room in your home. Crafted with attention to detail, these elegant timepieces commonly feature impressive walnut, cherry & brass finishings, where the overall design style and craftsmanship hasn't changed much over the centuries. Whilst many of these beautiful designs offer an alternative to the more modern and contemporary round wall or office clocks that are commonplace today, some designers are producing more modern looking traditional wall clocks, offering a fresh take on a classic design to better suit the modern space.
