Anyone here knowledgeable about clocks? 13:11 - Jul 17 with 546 viewsuefacup81

I picked up an old 1950s Smiths of Enfield mantel clock yesterday; 8-day mechanism with Westminster chimes.

I've managed to get it pretty well set up, and have managed to get it in beat. However, it's still stopping fairly randomly. I set it going at about 9pm last night and noticed this morning it had stopped around 0530hrs. Likewise, I set it going about 9am this morning and it stopped around 1230hrs.

Is this indicative of any particular issue? I'm assuming that if it's running for hours at a time, it's not a beat issue?

The big hand is the minute and the small hand is the hour.

Good luck!
