These
rare clocks, fine watches, chronometers, unique barometers
and other sought after timepieces, have provided a hedge
against the recent falling value of the dollar and are
sound alternative investments to stocks and other paper
assets.
The
value of each horological item is determined by the
maker and date of manufacture, as well as, complications
in the movement, style and material of the case, originality
of all the components, availability or rarity, and of
course, the present condition.
We
have priced our selection of clocks and other fine horologic
instruments at current fair market values based on recent
sales at various auctions and dealers; however, exact
comparables are difficult because so few examples are
available in the market place at any given time. The
images below are not in scale - please click on the
images for our selected close-up views and more detailed
information about each item offered.
