      One pic with no description of details, such as markings, won't get it .
    2. scottvez scottvez, 8 years ago
      I can tell you without a doubt it is NOT 18th century.

      As bb noted some additional details and photos would be helpful.

      Hi
      It is nice clock but ain't from 1800's. It has features from late 1800's but these are made long period of time, till near 1920's.
      Old Junghans clocks have 5-pointed star with J logo inside.
      Very nice clock anyway.

      ps. i have couple clocks too check them out ;)

      Hey sorry is this same clock?
    12. Vintage_Joe Vintage_Joe, 8 years ago
      It is so ok. If you take or ask pictures from movement we can date this clock for you.
    13. Vintage_Joe Vintage_Joe, 8 years ago
      Backplate from movement.
    14. gmb1891 gmb1891, 8 years ago
      Yes, is the same clock.. Actually i've made the payment and in the week will be with me :).. than i'll make some photos with the movement..
    15. gmb1891 gmb1891, 8 years ago
      In your opinion, 300 euros for this magnificent piece? its expensive or deserves more? He asked a week ago 550..

      Poster said: "seller tell's me that is a Junghans 18th century".

      Here is a link to makers site (still in business):

      Bruce can probably give you a precise year on this clock.

      Thanks allot Scott!
      I suppose its 1903-1918 :) after his hallmark...
      Bruce, can you give a hand here? :)

      Hi gmb1891. Welcome to Collectors Weekly!

      As Scott has already informed you, this clock can not be from the 18th century as the Junghan Family Clock Business was not in existence until the 19th century. A very nice and informative link which I have bookmarked Scott, thank you. If you can see and photograph any markings on the movement that *could* be very helpful in narrowing down the date of manufacture.

      It's a nice clock in any case. The overall fit and finish indicate to me that it is a genuine antique Junghans. Perhaps from circa 1900 give or take 10 years but that's only a guess on my part.

      Thanks for sharing it with us.
    19. gmb1891 gmb1891, 8 years ago
      Thank you very much Bruce.. i am waiting for this magnificent clock to come, i already paid and in max 2-3 days should be here, after that i will make some photos with the movement.
      Thanks again!

      Glad to help out.

      Good to see you/ your clock expertise on CW, bruce!

      The baby arrived, the new images are here!
      Mr Scott, Mr Bruce, what you think?
    22. Bruce99 Bruce99, 8 years ago
      The link that Scott provided tells us that the Junghans Logo stamped into your clock's plate first appeared in 1890, so that would be the earliest your clock could have been made. From what I can see, I think it was made sometime between 1890 and 1900. I can't make out a lot of detail in the photos but you can compare your logo to examples shown here: http://s60.photobucket.com/user/GShipe/media/47_zps3ec6e20d.jpg.html

      Thanks for sharing!
    23. gmb1891 gmb1891, 8 years ago
      Thanks very much, Bruce!
      Yes, seems 19th Century - 1890-1900...
      I put it on work from 3 hours.. believe me that i begun to love this "boy".. have only one hammer, beats once at half hour, and every hour beats exactly.. if it is 12, twelve times.. I love itttttt!!!

      You're very welcome gmb1891.

      Congratulations on acquiring your antique clock. Hopefully it will stand witness to many joyful moments for you, your family and friends as it no doubt has during the lifetimes of previous owners. Keep in mind that it is a machine with many small parts and points of friction. It was obviously made to last. It should be kept lubricated (a very little clock oil goes a long way) and periodic maintenance will be necessary if you plan to run it 24/7. You probably knew all of that already.

      Enjoy your "new" clock's presence! :)

      Scott, always my pleasure to see and learn from you as well. Thank you.
    25. gmb1891 gmb1891, 8 years ago
      Bruce, thank you so much for these kindest wishes.!!!
      Yes, Bruce, thanks again for your advice, i already took appointment at the clock Master this Friday.

      Thank you! Also thanks to Scott!
