Culvertons has dated this piece to the 1940s.

Why unusual ? Well the dial has the 'Smiths 8 day' insignia upon it and Smiths were competitors of Elliot's so there is a conundrum to solve there. Also 'B R' apart from the obvious ... is a mystery. However it was obvious during servicing this clock that there was no evidence of alterations, on the contrary the case, dial and movement all appeared untouched from the time of manufacture.
This clock keeps excellent time and its robust appearance supports its possible ministerial, war time or railway past.
