Travelling clock with a three-week power... - Lot 203 - Chayette & Cheval
Travelling clock with a three-week power reserve signed 'Henry Marc Paris' N°18428' (dial and back plate), circa 1840. White enamel dial, Roman numerals without rail (typical of Marc's travel clocks), openwork blued steel hands; plate movement, side anchor escapement with cylindrical balance spring above a compensated balance wheel, engraved cocks, striking on gong with external count wheel; single gilt brass case with spherical feet, solid silver inner frame. H: 17 cm A clock whose movement is reminiscent of the work of Jules (see Allix 72-3). Marc, who was more of a dealer of whom we know several clocks, also worked closely with Japy.
