Let me apologize beforehand...
Let me apologize beforehand for the wickedly long link. I don't think the link box can handle such a monster, and I couldn't figure out how to shorten it. If anyone knows how, how about a free lesson for Christmas? Happy Holidays!

I know nothing about this pricey clock,
but I have encountered your link problem in the past-- my solution is to trim extraneous stuff off the end at likely points (like wherever I see a =), then test the trimmed link until it's as short as possible but still functions.
Here's the $14,000 clock:

i remember this clock
It seems the same seller had it up back in oct for 4500
Wright auctions sold one back in '07 for 6000
Handsome little thing.
A google search brings up the same link to e-bay over and over.

It's a beautiful clock
but crikey, aren't most of the table models extremely over priced?
I can't imagine this clock's worth more than $600.00 or $800.00 tops.

It is still overpriced, but Barry...
you'd have to add a zero to your numbers. Three have sold in the past two to three years, each in the $6,000 to $9,000 range. This one is not worth that much (or near it) because it's been buffed and repainted. It is a very cool clock and very rare, though it appears there are at least 4 known examples at this point.

I've never seen this one. It is just rare. Would love to know the history and
why so few were made...
