Hermle RAVENSBURG Weight Driven Wall Clock 70974000711, Wrought Iron Review

I rarely leave reviews. Very rarely.1) This is a high quality clock.2) Solid metal.3) Keeps near perfect time after the normal adjustment period.4) The adjusting is what makes this fun.5) A note to Millennials reading this review; don't waste your time (get it?!) trying to understand "The adjusting is what makes this fun.".

This is a unique look for a clock. I've gotten a lot of positive comments about it. It was well packaged for shipping and easy to assemble. It keeps time and the chime on the hour is such a pleasant sound. I'm glad I purchased the clock. As with most pendulum clocks, lubricate the gears every 2 years with clock oil.

I was unhappy with the clock I didn't know it was a mechanical clock that you have to whine up so im sending it back no good for me sorry

This is a very simple wall clock that works with a single pendulum. No frills except an attractive face. The speed is adjusted by turning the nut at the base of the pendulum: up for faster and down for slower. I'm very pleased with it, mostly because of its simplicity and the fact that it works!

We love the clock but it's running fast and I'm unable to adjust it to keep accurate time, no matter how hard I try. All I can do is to follow instructions which are really simple but it keeps running fast, about 30 minutes a day.

the packaging stinks!the clock is wonderful but i had to polish the pendulum because the weight broke out of its flimsy prison and battered around the box throughout the shipping process. i have yet to hear from customer service so not sure how thats going to go but the clock on the wall is pretty and i love the "1" ding i get on the hour subtle but effective. this clock is in my library, it keeps time and doesn't disrupt my work. overall i am pleased barring of course he shipping…

Everyone who sees this clock at my house comments on it. It is extremely unique. Getting the pendulum dialed in is a bit annoying but only takes about a week. My main gripe with it is that my hour chime doesn't work.

I was almost suspicious and kept waiting to find a sticker that reads "made in China" to reveal itself. This simple, elegant clock is wonderful in our dining room. The single chime on the hour is loud enough to be heard gently on the first floor without be obtrusive while eating.

I've always wanted a mechanical clock since I was a child. I've looked at grandfather clocks on and off over my adult life but have never wanted to spend the money on one. I stumbled across this clock while I was looking for a new wall clock to put in my man cave and decided that if I was ever going to get a mechanical clock then this will be the one. I really like the look, feel and sound of it. It is very solid and except for the porcelain face is all metal. It did take me about a month of…

Purchased as a gift and the recipient loves it. Looks very cool on the wall. Clock fits well on a small wall and has a nice chime.

This clock has a nice tick sound which is what I was looking for. I’ll be tuning it properly over the next couple of weeks.The bell doesn’t sound bad but I didn’t want it to ring. It was easy enough to secure the arm that rings the bell with a bread tie so the clock still works perfectly and only "ticks” and "tocks” just like I wanted.

All metal, very well made, this is a very high quality clock. The only thing to be aware of is that since this is a fully mechanical (automatic) clock, it might take a few days for you to adjust the time. Maybe it's just me, but the directions were a little confusing for adjusting the time (left/right to turn the nut to adjust the position of the pendulum depends on whether you're viewing the adjusting nut from the top or bottom) - but the way that I finally figured it out is this: move the…
