Bulle clock Nº 5407

A tall “A” type Bulle clock with tubular column for the battery. This is a relatively early example from the first year of production. At first glance it appears to be in a reasonably good condition. Note the magnet support arms are thrusting out on the left though. This may mean its had a hard knock at some time. The dial looks to be almost perfect with no large marks or scrapes. The oblong labels from the front is missing and will be replaced with an Horologix original part. You can just spot the two mounting holes for the label at the bottom of the wooden base. The distance between the two holes proves that it is the earlier oblong labels rather than the shorter oval type.
