Hermle 2200 Quartz Clock for Repair


Have been receiving quite a few Hermle quartz clock movements for repair. All have the same problem of broken cannon pinion. All were successfully repaired to retain the originality of the clock instead of replacing the Hermle movement with some other makes.

Rhythm Cuckoo Clock for Repair




This model 4MJ659 is with music "Blue Danube" playing while the animals move and water mill turn after the cuckoo called. It's no longer in production. The clock was brought in because the animals and the water mill can't move anymore. It was repaired and cleaned up to the satisfaction of the owner.
