I have a clock with an Urgos movement. The model number on the lower right back of the plate is UW06144A and the number to the left of that in the center is A0F2. The clock is a double dial Ramcraft named The Tennessean. The movement has a calendar function with 5 hammers that strike on the 1/4hr and Westminster chime. Any info would be helpful. Thanks

By The Way it would be nice if you could use the introduction heading so we have a little more background and some pictures of the said clock as our Crystal Ball is out of action      cheers

I hope theses pictures will do. Obviously the movement is still in the case. I don’t have the know how to remove the movement for better pictures. It’s a long story, but I have another clock like this that someone unfortunately converted to a quartz movement. I’m trying to find a movement so that I can put it back to original. Any guidance is much appreciated. Thanks

A fairly modern Westminster chime with a platform escapement. If you are thinking of giving it a clean you will need a clock mainspring winder to remove each of the three springs. Doesn't look as if there is any oil in the oil sinks which can and will cause wear, so re-bushing might be needed. These modern movements are not made of good hard brass but of soft brass and the same with the steel. If you are going to strip the movement down and repair it then put it all back I can help you with that. You are going to need some tools which I can advise on what you will need.
