8-Day Mantel Clocks

"The Timeless Key Wound Movement..."

Do you remember your childhood days when your Dad or Granddad designated a certain day to wind the family mantel clock?  Re-capture these days with an 8-day mantel clock of superior craftsmanship and beauty.

.......Mantel key wound clocks have never gone out of style, even though many other types of clocks offer pendulum, atomic, battery-powered and radio controlled timekeeping.  Mantel key wound clocks are both a tradition of the past and a modern-day marvel above your fireplace or atop your office desk.

How Do 8-Day Mantel Clocks Work?

These clocks use a special key to wind the mechanical main spring that powers the clock movements.  These clocks run for up to 8 days before they need to be re-wound. 

8-Day mantel clocks were the first spring-powered clocks, developed in Nuremberg, Germany by master clockmakers at the turn of the 16th century.  They became extremely popular in France, and soon spread throughout Europe. 

Now you can own a little piece of this rich history with a clock that will be a family treasure for years to come.
