Bulle Nº 12199
By kind permission of the owner.
The pendulum has been secured for transit by the use of foam pipe lagging wrapped around the bar magnet. A small piece of foam has also been inserted between the coil and magnet to stop front to back movement. This method is very effective in stopping transit damage to the clock.
Peering through the battery door at the back, we can spot some interesting wiring techniques. The negative wire being connected to the movement plates.
The battery holder is a home made 1.5volt “D” cell holder.
The suspension is also home made probably using the original brass chops and a piece of what looks to be medal ribbon?
