 Nice Clocks John, Have a look at my two examples, My 3 weight is still in the US, I bought a pup' on Ebay and got Burnt badly. I don't think it will ever run. Enough of my troubles after all it's only money. ![]()  | |||

 Twin Weight. ![]()  | ||||

 Very nice clocks, Ged.  I like the combination of the ebonized trim on a walnut case.  There's a two-weight here that is definitely German, but the name on the dial is G. Snaith, Wigton.  | ||||

 Thanks for comments John, The single weight is one of my favourite clocks, I like the half column trim with finials and the contrasting ebonised parts against the Walnut, as you comment on. Regards, Ged.  | ||||

 John, I forgot to mention the retailer of the German clock "Snaith of Wigton". Wigton is in Cumbria just South of the Scottish border in the West of the country. Regards, Ged.  | ||||

 And this one is a Becker, silvered chapter ring, center of dial, weights, and pendulum bob match. ![]()  | ||||

 Last one, another 3-weight.  I think this one is Austrian; the word "Wein" appears somewhere on the gong bracket I think.  The gongs on this one are circular and attached to a bracket on the back of the movement.  It may be a recase but it has been in the possession of my family since the mid-1960's. ![]()  | ||||

 John, Thanks for showing us your Viennas, They are one of my favourite clocks/types.I suppose you may know this "WIEN" is the same as Vienna, My wife and eldest daughter were there in August for a few days and the Postcard she sent me had "WIEN" on it.  I think all collectors should have a set of 3Viennas , A single ,A double and a3 weight version. I'm still looking for another 3 weight. Regards, Ged.  | ||||
