The August 2002 Chapter 168 meeting special
topic was figural clocks, those with people on the dials, pendulums
or anywhere else. This one has figures on the pendulum |
 |
This diamond dial Schatz has the extra maintaining
power wheel and the holey dome with man and women figures on
the dial going around a Maypole perhaps |
 |
This is a muliticoloured picture dial Schatz 49,
featuring a traveller and his dog chatting up a lady, seated |
 |
This Kern has a floral dial but 4 ball (figural)
pendulum. |
 |
This Schatz 49 has a round figural dial with a
pompadour courting scene in a garden |
 |
This is another kern but with a disk pendulum
supporting the figurines which spin out when making adjustments |
 |
Similar to the one above with a different colour
scheme which may mave been altered. |
 |
This is a 3 ball miniature Schatz 53 (dated 3
54)with the a dog in the courting scene similar picture to the
multicoloured dial Schatz 49 |
 |
This Kundo Depicts an indoor scene with a fiddler
playing to a lady. Ready for restoration |
 |
Another colourful outside courting scene - a common
theme it seems, maybe these should be called courting, not anniversary
clocks! |
 |
Same figurines on the "4 ball type of arrangement,
differently painted. The one on the left has the narrow 1.77'plates
|
 |
Here's the disk type with porcelain ladies in
long dresses |
 |
Floral but not figural miniature |
 |
The group of figural clocks brought along for
display |
 |
Other clocks brought along for discussion of whether
the pendulums and bases are correct |
 |
Rear view of these Badisches |
 |
A Solar (on the dial) FHS plate 1104 miniature
clock not seen before in Australia (bought in Canada) |
 |
The plates are tapered with the FHS clock logo
and Germany markings. As you can see these meetings are full
of variety and fun discussions |
