I posted this on another internet venue, but had no response. I am hoping that someone may be able to identify this clock that I am servicing for a customer. The pinned movement, I assume is French due to the Paris stamp, but I am hoping that the stamped initials add more info. The dial simply has the name of the jeweller; Mappin and Webb which doesn’t help to identify the movement. No big deal, but any info would be appreciated. Best regards, Grant Grant Perry | |||

In Britten's Old Clock and Watches and Their Makers A there is only a reference to a Leanord Just, but this doesn't seem to be the right "Just". He was in business from 1790 - 1825 and made rather poor quality watches for the Chinese market. We will have to wait and see what Doug comes up with. Tom | ||||

Thanks for the input Tom. The case actually looks Deco(ish) and is marble and chrome, so it would be later production I think. The plates are very thick and the movement seems to be well made. Thanks again, Grant Grant Perry | ||||

I have a carrage clock with the A.1 mark on it. It dates from the first quarter 20th century. Looked in my carriage clock literature but no luck with the actual maker. | |||
