How do I wind an antique clock?

Wind the clock using the correct fitted key on the winding arbors found on the dial face or movement backplate. Turn gently until you feel resistance, taking care not to overwind the mainspring. Ensure you stop immediately when the spring holds tension to prevent damage to the internal mechanism and teeth of the wheels.

What is a repeating carriage clock?

A repeating carriage clock includes an extra mechanism that sounds the last elapsed hour and quarter-hour when a button or lever on the case is pressed. This allowed owners to check the time in the dark without turning on a lamp. The complication relies on additional racks and snails within the movement, making these pieces more intricate than standard time-only models.

Why does my clock run fast or slow?

Mechanical clocks are influenced by temperature, age, and placement, which can alter the effective length of the pendulum or the tension of the hairspring. Regulation is typically adjusted by turning a small nut on the pendulum rod or using a regulating square on the dial. Small adjustments made over several days will help the clock keep more accurate time without disrupting the escapement.
