I can see virtually no difference between your clock and the model 9169 Sussex other than yours is of a darker wood. So it appears Ridgeway had some VERY similar models being produced concurrently. Apparently your clock is Model #9167 instead of #9169.? My note says you had referred to yours as possibly the "Hamilton Country" model. **UPDATE: Ronnie, I just found a note in my Ridgeway folder with a picture of your clock from a discussion we had back in Nov 2012. Sorry I wasn't of more help with clockwonder's clock. See attached image of this clock's page from the catalog. However, I've found Rockin Ronnie's clock in my 1997 catalog and his is Model #9169, known as "The Sussex." The first two digits "91" of the model number mean that this model made its first appearance in 1991 but was still being made as of the time of the 1997 catalog, which fits with Ronnie's statement that his clock was made in 1996. Unfortunately, I am unable to find clockwonder's clock, most likely because if his was made in 1987 it fell in between the largest gap in the period covered by my catalogs and was no longer being offered as of 1997. 1967, 19) and have looked up your clocks in them. These would have been made in Germany while theĬase was most likely made here in the US. Help to keep them from slipping off the sprockets and jammingĪbout all we can possibly tell you about the clocks is the maker of the Of chains together as close to the seat board as you can. Of course, the best thing to do is have it professionally movedīy a clock mover ( not starving student or such economy movers ).Īlmost forgot, gets some bread package tie wires and tie the pairs If not marked, put them in the same order. When you take the weights off, you'll see that one is usually much heavier If you are going any distance, you should take a piece of cardboardĪnd poke it over the chime rods so they don't vibrate. There is also a pendulum leader in the back of the movement that Before you move it, remove the weights and pendulum.
