Our friend Bill Maier has recently started his own blog to document his impressive collection of rare, antique "Vienna" Regulator Timepieces. Here's a particularly stellar example from his collection: Gilded bronze skeletonized laterndluhr by Fertbauer, C. 1810. Overall height 67". Seconds beating, knife edge suspension riding on a gimbal. The gimbal is held by two L shaped brackets through the front plate of the movement, typical Fertbauer design, sweep seconds with sub dials of minutes, hours, and date. Stay tuned for more input from this great collection! [via ViennaRegulators.org ]

This is a early Biedermeier Vienna Regulator C. 1835 is a recent addition to the collection. 6 light fruit wood case. One piece white glass dial with case engine turned bezel. 8 day 1 weight movement. 38" H 11" W. The previous owner purchased the clock in Austria in the late 1940's and brought it to the western United States. The clock is in mint untouched condition, from the bone handled winding crank to the delicate hand cut pulley.
