This is an old, wooden, octagonal clock from the former Sato Manufacturing Company, though the exact age is unknown. (The box has the inscription "SATOS CLOCK FACTRY" on the pendulum area) Dimensions: Height 54cm, Octagonal width 30cm, Depth 11cm The gears, mainspring, and other mechanical parts were removed, cleaned, rust removed, and oiled. The wooden box was also cleaned and varnished, the brass around the dial was polished, and finally, the pendulum's movement was adjusted and reassembled. (Photos 5-12) The broken round glass of the dial has been replaced with an acrylic plate. The "bon-bon" sound chimes late and has not been repaired because it is difficult to adjust. I have created a self-made instruction manual and warnings, so please be sure to read it. It explains how to wind the mainspring, how to get the pendulum running smoothly, how to set the time and chimes, and how to deal with the pendulum stopping. * The clock itself does not necessarily need to be perfectly vertical for the pendulum to run correctly. Find the best position by tilting the clock box left and right by a few millimeters. * The pendulum rod is held in place by a leaf spring, so handle the pendulum with care when attaching and removing it. (If the pendulum stops, the leaf spring may be faulty) Pulling the pendulum rod too hard will cause the leaf spring to come loose, bend, or break. Always remove the pendulum when moving the clock. * Wind the mainspring for about 8 minutes. Winding it too tightly will cause the mainspring to seize, stopping the pendulum, and in the worst case, the mainspring will break. As this is an antique, it is difficult for it to keep accurate time, and the chimes may not sound at the correct time. However, you can still enjoy the soothing ticking of the pendulum. I will check the operation before shipping, but I cannot be responsible for any accidents during shipping due to the delicate nature of the old machinery. Please check the condition of the clock after receiving it by referring to the instruction manual. As this is an antique, please understand that there may be some scratches and other imperfections.
