Lux Cuckoo clock chain size "Click" to Login or Register

My father is restoring a full size Lux Cuckoo Clock that is approx 10" wide and 16" tall.

Does anyone know what size chain would be used for this movement? If you have a reference to a Merritts or S.Larose part number, that would be very helpful.

Thanks in advance.

Steve,
I have a Lux cuckoo clock with the original chains. It measures 5 links to the inch, which is the same as the modern Regula #24, 30 hour movements.
Best regards,
Dick
