Grandfather Clock Repairs
At a recent Expo of our grandpa clocks in Johannesburg I had numerous a discussion that started similar to this: "Our clock was going well for 30 odd years and after that it quit! There is nothing wrong with our grandpa clock-it just stopped ... Please aid! Can you repair it?" The expectations we place on our clocks and also watches are intolerable isn't it? It runs day and night, unlike a vehicle as an example that relaxes frequently. Yet we expect it to run without a service for decades. I would certainly agree that "absolutely nothing is wrong with the clock". Maybe we ought to consider the question of clock fixings as well as upkeep. Exactly how often should a clock be serviced? In our experience a Hermle or Kieninger grandpa clock will run flawlessly for anything up to 50 years without a solution if it isn't posted on the coastline or in a messy and also very dry climate. The grandpa clock's chimes will start revealing tension after 12 years
