Recent Ebay clock finds. "Click" to Login or Register 
posted
Here are 2 clocks i recently bought off Ebay.I think the Lux was ok for the price under 20 dollars and the 400 day clock was a buy it now of 25 dollars.
I think they are both neat clocks.I like the challenge of working on the 400 day clocks, but mostly like the older ones from the 40,s.

Hey Kevin,

I really like that Lux clock. Here's one I bought recently off eBay, a Chauncey Jerome OG with a round brass dial.

Kevin...I like the Lux, what is the "case" made of?

Derek, yours looks very nice, did it come like that or have you spruced it up?

Greg, the movement has been cleaned and rebushed, but other than that, everything appears to be original. The case finish looks almost too good to be true and I'm not sure I have a sharp enough eye to spot a perfect refinish, usually there are tell, tell signs of refinishing. Other than it being almost too good, I'm just not 100% sure.

Kevin, do you collect Lux's? Also, what is the size of the Lux?

I have not recived the Lux clock yet.Will let you know more about it when it comes.I don,t usually collect Lux clocks but i know some are worth a fair bit.I just happened to see this one and really liked it.
The anniversary clock does have a glass dome.

Derek your Chauncey ogee is a awesome clock in great shape too, must have sold for a hefty price.
Derek the Lux measures about 9 inches across it.
The dial is plastic and the case is metal, have not seen the movement yet but runs well.
