G.P.O Antique Fusee Dial Wall Clock

Clockwise is delighted to offer one of two Post Office clocks for sale. This stunning example of the number 5 model has been tastefully restored and benefits from a chain-driven eight day fusee movement dating from 1913. The movement is stamped with the date of manufacture and other details laid out in the earliest configuration recorded. This 234 example has one revision over the slightly earlier 233 model and the cypher on the 12 inch restored dial would have been changed on the passing of the monarch.

Likely made by F.W.Elliot, this is a government issue clock which would have been displayed in public areas or a sorting office. It is complete with the Elizabeth II cypher to the twelve inch dial and the gorgeous oak case, with bottom and side door, house the brass bezel and glass. The dial surround is attached in the classic fashion to the main case by four wooden pegs and the case is a particular feature having a wonderful patina and in excellent condition, with a serial number stamped to the rear.

Internally the movement has been stripped, overhauled, cleaned and oiled through and is covered by my three year guarantee.

This is just one of many fusee clocks that I have for sale with more railway and government clocks due soon
