British Rail Oak Fusee Railway Clock, Dorset

I am delighted to offer another great example of a genuine fusee railway clock from British Railways Southern Region, dating from 1957. This was supplied by the highly regarded Stockall Marples and Co manufacturer for a cost of €11-10-9d and was assigned to Bridport Parcels Office and then transfered to the Western Region on 1/1/1963. The fusee eight day movement has rectangular plates with an anchor escapement and has been fully overhauled so benefits from my three year guarantee. The manufacturers reference number is stamped to both the front and back plates. The eight inch dial is in very good condition with ''B.R. 11496" applied exactly as found on the dial prior to cleaning. The clock retains its original hands and the bezel locks securely into a tab. The one piece turned oak ten inch diameter surround has fantastic colour and patination since its restoration. The circular surround is pegged to the back box in the classic manner with the usual latched side inspection door and lower regulating door with turnkey lock. There are brass countersink screws to each side of the case and a stabilising fitting to the lower case. This is a rare and original clock in gorgeous condition and it’s one of many fusee and railway clocks I have for sale with many more coming. Clockwise specialises in longcase and bracket clocks and with clients from the world of business, film, sport, royalty and aristocracy - yet more than happy with traditional clients - Clockwise has an unrivalled reputation for excellence and superb service.
