Seth Thomas Ship's Clock

[Irenaeus]

The sun has set on my Seth Thomas chiming ship's clock and I'm seeking a new dawning. I've tried a local shop, and it seems to work alright when on their wall with the face and bezel removed, but it stops dead pretty quickly after bringing it home.

Does anyone know of a really good place to send it? I suppose what I'd prefer would be someone who used to work at the factory and who actually made them. It's been inoperative for years and I really miss it.

Thanks,

Irenaeus

Where are you located?
There is a good place in New York (Manhattan) -- Sutton Clock Shop on E 61 St. They have a web site. I had them fix an antique ship's clock some years ago, and I think they even needed to fabricate a part. Works fine now. Look em up.

Thanks for the swift response! I'm in Montana, but Pony Express (or something) can manage Manhattan easily. I'll check out their website right away.

Cheers,

Irenaeus
