Bulle Nº 1583

This is a very early and interesting Bulle clock dating from the first year of production. The full size movement is held in a front lifting glass framed wall case. The three glass panels are held in place by two angled brass strips. The dial is perfect as are the hands.

The case is unusual in that the two small hinges are at the top of the case meaning that the whole front and sides tilt up and backwards for access to the mechanism. The mechanism has an early half plate movement with box section, which is only seen on clocks with a serial number less than 2000.

Not all of the later production methods have been ironed out yet and as such this clock has some unusual features not seen on later clocks.
