Hello Huey,
This is a time-only wall clock loosely referred to as a "Regulator".
In order to help identify your clock, please provide the following:
Any and all information printed, stamped or labeled on the dial, movement, case and pendulum. This includes names, trademarks, serial/model/patent numbers and dates.
Do you know how often does it needs to be re-wound?
Measurements of the dial and case. Please take measurements at the longest, widest, and deepest points only.
Well lit photos of the entire case, with close-ups of the dial, movement and any distinctive decorative feature(s) or labels.
This information will be very helpful, but it still may not lead to a definitive model or date.
If we can find a make and model for you, you may be able to research the Internet to find current market value.
Regards,
Bruce
the clock is 14.5 wide and 36 in tall with GILBERT written on face also made in winsted conn usa
