...just off the bench after an overhaul is this my recently acquired 56" Vienna regulator...just love it and it passed it's 'time-check' with quartz accuracy...am curious tho' as to what is known of the maker 'A. Willmann & Co'...from my research to date, believe it was made in the late 19thC but know little else about the maker save that the company was assumed by the Becker Group at the turn of that century...

Jim, sorry I can't add any info concerning the maker of your clock, but will say its a very nice looking addition. I have a couple Viennas and eventhough I have limited knowledge about them, I like them and they seem to be good timekeepers and like yours, look great on the wall.

Nice clock Jim. I don't have any references on German clocks, but I will see what I can find out.
