New from Paraguay

[Collomps]

Helllo, i want to introduce myself, i am Carl, from Argentina, currently living in the beautiful Paraguay.

I always loved the intrincate mechanisms of this important devices that helps us be aware of the pace of time, even tough i am not a repairman, but i have done maintenance on my old family clocks with success. Sadly i dont have pictures of my limited but i believe fairly interestin collection of clocks and watches, but sure enough i will post them as soon as possible.

I will also introduce them:

1- 1882 "Junghans" (that's what the face says, but it was redone in 1985, so they could put any name on it) long case clock, movement works with two weights, sounds once every half hour and every hour the correct number of times. 2 meter tall, very nice curved glass and vitraux.

2- (manufacture date still to confirm but between 1861-1882) Elias Ingraham shelf clock. It has an alarm which you can set at the desired timing, with a separate ringing mechanism (missing).

3- Udine & Co. Cifra 12 "flap display" clock, working but missing a gear to the hours. That thing is HUGE!

Watches i have a lot, none of them wirking (for now), except an old Seiko Automatic and my favorite, a Citizen Titanium 3510-352181 TA (wich i consider a very nice timepiece).

Thats all for now.

 

Cheers!

Carl
