Fusee clocks, with their intricate mechanisms and historical significance, are not just timepieces; they are pieces of history. Dating back to the 15th century, fusee clock repairs  were some of the earliest mechanical clocks, renowned for their accuracy and reliability. Today, these beautiful clocks are prized possessions, treasured for their craftsmanship and historical value. However, like any mechanical device, fusee clocks require regular maintenance and occasional repairs to ensure they continue to function properly.

At our workshop, we specialize in fusee clock repairs, offering expert care and precision to preserve these timeless treasures for generations to come.

Understanding Fusee Clocks Before delving into fusee clock repairs, it's essential to understand how these remarkable timepieces work. Fusee clocks use a unique chain and fusee mechanism to regulate the movement of the clock hands. The fusee is a conical-shaped pulley with a helical groove wrapped around it. As the clock's mainspring unwinds, the chain pulls on the fusee, which changes the effective length of the mainspring, compensating for its reduced power.

The intricacies of this mechanism require specialized knowledge and expertise to repair and maintain. That's where our team of skilled craftsmen comes in.

Expert Repair Services At our workshop, we offer a comprehensive range of repair services for fusee clocks, designed to address a wide variety of issues:

Cleaning and Lubrication: Over time, dirt, dust, and old lubricants can accumulate inside the clock, causing it to run sluggishly or stop altogether. Our expert technicians carefully disassemble the clock, clean each component, and apply fresh lubricants to ensure smooth operation.

Chain and Fusee Inspection: The chain and fusee are critical components of a fusee clock, responsible for regulating the movement of the clock hands. We inspect these components for wear and damage, repairing or replacing them as needed to maintain proper function.

Gear and Escapement Adjustment: The gear train and escapement are vital for accurate timekeeping. We meticulously adjust these components to ensure the clock keeps accurate time and strikes correctly.

Case Restoration: In addition to repairing the clock movement, we also offer case restoration services to bring back the clock's original beauty. Whether it's refinishing the wood, repairing decorative elements, or replacing missing parts, we take great care to restore the case to its former glory.
