N.e.r Fusee Dial Railway Clock, Darlington, 10 Inch

Clockwise is delighted to welcome into its collection a lovely restored North Eastern Railway fusee wall clock dating from circa 1900. The eight day fusee rectangular plate anchor escapement movement is chain-driven and has just benefitted from a full overhaul so the clock enjoys a three year guarantee.

The 10 inch dial is in excellent condition and bears the legend B.R 2697. Records show this clock as originally sited in Darlington Bank Top Station in the downstairs Telegraph Office. This clock was originally NER clock number 1338 and Broxbourne AM is marked on the back; records show the Area Manager transferred it there in 1982. The clock was allocated its current number following the Transport Act of 1947 when British Rail was formed.

Original spade hands behind an original spun brass bezel, which retains its tab for security, complete the impressive appearance.

The mahogany case is of standard two piece pegged construction and there is a side inspection door with tab and a lower door which closes securely.

A copy of the L.N.E.R records accompanies this lovely clock.

This smaller size railway clock is an increasingly rare find and in superb condition – genuine railway clocks are becoming ever more scarce so enjoy this clock whilst you can.

Clockwise specialises in longcase and bracket clocks and with global clients from the world of business, film, sport, royalty and aristocracy – yet more than happy with traditional clients – Clockwise has an unrivalled reputation for excellence and superb service.
