Howard Miller Nouveau Grand Grandfather Clock 610-931

Description

JUST DROPPED THE PRICE!  If it doesn't sell here after this auction, I'll be putting it up for sale locally. Beautifully maintained DOUBLE faced Grandfather Clock.  Purchased new in 2002.  Primary clock (front) is driven by the pulley/pendulum system, secondary clock (back) is powered by battery.  Fully wound, it'll run for a week with chimes.  There is a silent feature to turn off the chimes completely; as well as a day only chime function.  I've oiled the wood twice a year, however there are a few small scratches in the lower part of the body near the floor. Not even really noticeable.  Due to the way the circular casing was constructed around the front clock face, a small crack has developed. I would assume mostly due to heat/cold changes and a bit of warping.  With the front bezel closed, this small crack (see picture) is covered.  Instruction manual and wind key are still with the clock. Keeps great time and the Westminster chime is on the quarter hour, sequentially, so you audibly know if it's 15, 30, 45 minutes past the hour.  LOCAL PICKUP ONLY. Sorry, but I don't have the means to crate this wonderful clock up and ship it.  More than happy to help get it out to your vehicle (no stairs!). Apologies for the reflections in the glass in the photos, but daylight afforded the best pictures. This is a big spend, so don't hesitate to ask any questions.  I've loved this clock, but I'm looking to downsize.  I've priced it very fairly given it's quality and uniqueness.  I wish a could be as elegant with the following description I found elsewhere:
"As stunning as this curvaceous clock may be, you can't truly appreciate this unique timepiece until you see it from the back. That's because unlike any other clock on the market, the Nouveau Grand has NO "BACK". On one side, you'll find an elegant face with a cable driven movement, and on the opposite side, you'll discover an identical clock with a high-quality quartz movement. This unique Furniture Trend Design floor clock offers a 360' Merlot Cherry finish on select hardwoods and veneers. The round white dial features a prominent nickel finished bezel, hour markers and hands. Curved, beveled glass on the front, sides and back offer a SEE-THRU view with the nickel finished pendulum and weights inside. A raised wood panel is placed beneath the glass on front, sides and back of the case. A reeded panel wraps around the entire base. Four sculptured feet with nickel finished accents also appear at the base. Cable-driven, Westminster chime Kieninger movement offers automatic nighttime shut-off option."
