Large L Epee Date Work Carriage Clock in the Box with the Paperwork

1940 - 1960
For Sale by Arundel Clocks
Description

Hi

I have for sale a 1960s French striking and repeating/alarm carriage clock made in France by L Epée with the date dials at the bottom , in the Gorge case so a top-of-the-shop heavy carriage clock for the best collections.

This clock has been fully restored and is offered for sale in mint-perfect condition both visually and mechanically I have replaced the springs so will be good for years to come.

The Case

The case is in solid shiny brass in the Gorge case style and stands 18cm high x 9cm wide with a depth of 9cm it is in perfect condition with mint thick bevelled sides/front/back door and top viewing glass.

The case is very shiny and hard to photograph they do not do the clock justice at all.

This clock is very heavy at 3.75 kilos so postage will cost a little more sorry.

The Dial

The dial is in mint condition in white with roman numerals, the face is perfect no cracks or hairlines at all, and the clock also retains its original black moon hands.

The clock has three dials at the bottom one for the day and date (in English) and the centre dial for the alarm setting with the fully working lunar moon phase all functions are in perfect working order.

The Movement

The movement is an eight-day time and strike which strikes the hours and halves via a blue steel gong to the rear also has the repeater button on top to repeat the last hour strike, the movement has been serviced and oiled so keeping a great time over the eight days and has the bonus of the original jewelled platform escapement.

This clock also has a working alarm function and is fully signed on the rear plate.

The original key and box are still present.

This clock was over 4K new so a big saving to be had.

Overall a very beautiful quality carriage clock by a quality French maker that looks great on display and contains all of its original features this is quite a rare find these days.

I will ship worldwide and pack very carefully.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

First developed by Abraham-Louis Breguet in the early nineteenth century for Emperor Napoleon, carriage clocks were portable timepieces designed for travel. They became a staple of French horology, renowned for precision movements and elegant brass cases.

Traditional carriage clocks feature solid brass cases, bevelled glass viewing panels, and enamel dials over copper plates. The internal mechanisms consist of steel and brass gear trains driven by mechanical springs.

Authenticity is indicated by maker stamps or signatures on the dial or back plate, heavy brass construction, finely bevelled glass, and hand-finished mechanical escapements rather than modern quartz movements.

Place the clock on a mantelpiece, executive desk, or within a curated bookshelf. Its warm brass metallic tones contrast effectively against dark wood surfaces or painted panelling.

Wind the clock regularly using a correctly fitted key without over-tightening the spring. Keep the brass case free from moisture to prevent oxidisation, and have the mechanical movement professionally serviced every five to seven years.
