I would try one of the clock collector sites and forums, there are also a few groups on Facebook that might be able to help.
gorgeous! this looks like a special one.
Your clock looks fantastic with the gilt bronze case.
Here is the same clock/ different dial:

W. Duke and Sons is a tobacco Company, so it appears the others were made as advertising pieces (auction info on one identifies the workings as New Haven clock)
A google search of "clock w. duke and sons" will give you some results.
We have a great clock guy on here-- give it some time and "Bruce" will probably be able to provide more/ detailed information.

The clock was made by the New Haven clock Co. If you look at the bottom of the movement in the middle their makers mark should be there. New Haven Clock Co name should be on the porcelain dial also. They made these clocks as advertisement pieces for W Duke and Sons Co. also. These clocks were made about 1885.
