Well I really Like Antiques , Ya know....

Ran across an old Regulator Clock dial and since I have no other antique clock parts and watches are more my thing I decided to fix it up so I can use it at my desk.
I stuck a new Quartz movement and hands on it and put it up on a plate easel :)
Here is a photo of it on my desk with some other relics (the old shoe peg cigar box contains my collection of vintage Bulova's)
Whatcha think?

Very trick. Has a nice patina and looks great with the other collectibles around it. Nice job.

Thanks much :) I have a sort of 19th Century theme going on on top of my desk and thought the clock dial would suit it.
No maker's mark anywhere on the dial that I can find.

That's a really nice display. I'd like to get some old World War ll era clocks and chronometers but they sure are expensive.

Love antique stuff. How old actually the clock was?

According to the guy I got it from and from my watchmaker it is late 19th Century.

What a great way to use a dial that would otherwise sit in a box somewhere. Looks good!

Thanks :) I looked at it as a way to save a part they may have never been used....plus it looks nice in my den and keeps accurate time now.
