I went to the watch and clock show this past weekend in Montreal.I bought 2 clocks at the show nothing special a Waterbury mantle and a Korean.Then my freind and i went to a fleamarket.I saw this clock and got it cheap for 50 dollars.I looked on the net and found just one site that had clocks by this name. All i know about it is it is german made in the 1960,s to 1980,s.It is a regulator and is called a french Vienna, i guess that is the stle.Anyways the 3 pictures from the site i found is exactly my clock.It runs very well and i have set the pendulum twice and seems to be keeping very good time.It strikes one hammer at the top of the movement on the half and the hour. ![]() | |||

Nice clock Kevin. I don't know much about that maker, maybe someone esle can add some details. Tom | ||||

Kevin, The name on your clock may be Jauch instead of Fauch. I have a triple-chime with platform escapement movement with Jauch in script on the back plate and it would be easy to read that as an F instead of a J. | ||||

Hi John, i got my information from the website, www.time4you.ca It says in the listing Fauch. I did a search on Jauch and i found nothing. I will try to take a picture of the dial and post it. ![]() | ||||

Ok, I see. I used Alta Vista and did a search on Jauch with several hits, but only two of them were for Jauch clock movements. According to http://www.clockworks.com/jauchg.html Jauch is out of business and Clockworks can supply Hermele movements that will replace some of the Jauch 3-weight grandfather movements. Butterworths also has a list of exchanges. | ||||

Hi Kevin,like the clean lines of your clock, good deal! | |||

Thanks Carlos and others about the comments of my clock.It is interesting that 12 dollar korean clock i bought on the same day is keeping better time than my regulator.I am sure once adjusted it will be a better timekeeper. | ||||
