Breguet Carriage Clock
This Silver cased Breguet Carriage Clock bears the number "3810" on top of the
back plate of the movement, as well as the back of the dial. There is also a
number "9723" on the bottom left hand corner of the movement and parts of that
number are on the insides of the case. The clock's case is marked 95% pure
silver and also has the Maker's mark (which I presume is for the case) - both of
which are on top of the door. The clock also comes in the original carrying
case and has the original key.
I'm still having the National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors
(NAWCC) trying to identify if this is a "true" Breguet, i.e. made by Breguet
himself, or by his sons. Everyone who has looked at it, including myself,
believe that it is an original Breguet. This Carriage clock is the only one I
have ever seen without a glass "view port" on the top of the case and it's also
the smallest carriage clock that I have ever seen. The case measures 3.75"
tall, by 2.25" wide, by 2 3/16" deep. I'm currently in the process of
renovating the clock, as you can easily tell by the hands and the missing
platform.
