How do I operate the repeater?

Depress the button or plunger located on the top of the case firmly downwards. The mechanism will sound the last hour and any preceding quarters on the internal gongs or bell. Release the button fully and allow the train to complete its cycle before pressing it again. Avoid forcing the plunger if the striking sequence feels jammed or hesitant.

What is a gorge case?

A gorge case is a heavy brass carriage clock housing defined by stepped mouldings on the top and bottom plates and fluted or reeded corner pillars. It provides a robust architectural frame for the movement. This style became popular among leading french makers during the mid to late 19th century. Many fine examples feature hand engraving across these brass surfaces.

How do I wind the clock?

Insert the matching key into the appropriate winding square on the underside or backplate of the movement. Turn the key gently in the direction specified by the arrows until resistance indicates the mainspring is fully tensioned. Take care not to overwind the springs, as this can cause breakage. Most travel clocks require winding every eight days.

Why does it strike twice?

Repeating mechanisms are designed to recount the hours and quarters sequentially when activated. If the clock sounds an incorrect hour or skips a quarter, the rack and snail components may require adjustment by a horologist. Regular servicing ensures the synchronisation between the time-keeping train and the striking train remains accurate.
