  • Clock Repair- Chess Games "Lost on Time"...!, Chesterfield

    Closed Phil Foster | Verified Request | 0 Question(s) | 0 Offer(s) | Monday 31 July 2023

    I have an old "Coldfield Clock": a double-clock, intended for timing chess games. The mechanism is working, but I've lost one of the winders/time-adjusters at the back. (As a consequence, one side of the clock works perfectly; the other is wound-down.) How much would it cost for a replacement part to be fitted?Read more

  • Clock repair, Chesterfield

    1. We have a Zaanse Zaandam clock (similar to this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/255292171588?hash=item3b70996544:g:1-cAAOSwUhthw6wT) which has stopped working. It works for a few seconds, then the pendulum seems to jerk and it stops. We've checked the balance and ensured that it's correct, but still not working. 2. We have a longcase clock, c.1810, which has multiple problems, the main one being that the chimes are erratic and therefore don't relate to the correct time, and it often chimes when I reset it using the chain (several years ago the original rope was replaced with a chain, not sure whether this was a good idea, as the chain sometimes slips, and the weight occasionally falls off. Could you give a quote for repairing the wall clock and giving the longcase clock a general service as well as repairing the chimes? Also, are you able to do this here, or would we need to bring the clocks to you? Thanks, NickRead more
