New York Standard Regulator No. 42 (Sold)
Item ID: 1388 - This is a ca 1900, New York Standard Watch Company, Jersey City, New Jersey Regulator No. 42. The clock movement is very unusual using a Hipp toggle to impulse the pendulum electromagnetically. The 80 beat pendulum actually moves the center sweep second hand ahead 1 1/2 seconds upon every swing to the right. Thus the second hand makes one revolution in 60 seconds. The second hand in turn drives the minute and hour hands. An ingenious movement and an excellent timekeeper. The mahogany case is 50" tall and has the fine original finish. The 12" painted dial is original as are the pendulum rod and distinctive bob. The top finial is a replacement. The clock is in mint condition and is in good running order. Please view the photos for additional information. Email me if you have questions.
