Waterbury "Oxford"?
I am looking for case parts for the clock below. In Ly's book of Waterburys, the "Oxford" looks very close. Would anyone happen to know where I might find a case and or parts for this case?

Greg,
I don't know where to get parts for your clock, but I thought I would post a picture of the "Oxford" so others may know what type of parts you are looking for.

Pictures are from Tran's Waterbury book.

Would anyone happen to have close-up photos of the bottom center(wood) and of the statues?

Seems like I saw the statues in LaRose or Merritts catalogs.

Statues are $7.50 each from Merritts, page 99 of the 2004 catalog.

It's a customers. The case restoration complete...cost $275.00, which I thought was very good. The guy used old wood for the replacements. I don't really care for the "cupids", but I'm very pleased. If anyone would like the name of the guy...I would be happy to recommend him. It took almost 3 months...but he's like the rest of us...works alone.
