hermle movement

Don't know why I didn't think of a forum earlier. Purchased a her le movement, rebuilt. Need weights and I know they are 2 @ 4.7 and 1 @ 7.7 just not sure if I need specific shells or if any will do. Also, same with pendulum, I know its 94cm can I purchase any pendulum as long as its for a 94cm clock. One last thing, the springs for the hammers, what are they called so I can find and purchase. Thank you so much and I hope this helps. Building a clock for my mother, and this is my first attempt.

If you have a rebuilt Hermle unit, there should be a model number etched on the rear plate (probably in the lower right hand corner as you face the backside of the movement). Reply back with that model number, and I can definately assist with identifying some of the needed accessories that will work with your movement.

Model 1151-050h 94cm I guess I also need the chime block also. Hope this is what you needed. Thanks very much

That movement would be the same style movement as Klockit stock number 13045. This would be a triple chime Grandmother style movement. Contact Klockit and ask to speak with the mechanical movement technician in regard to the weight fills. We do not offer the weight fills separately on the web (or in the catalog), however I am certain we can still supply them to you. The same would apply to the shells (as the shells for the 13045 are specific to that movement). You can also inquire about an extra chime rod assembly at that time as well. If we have extras, we should be able to supply it to you.

In regard to the pendulum, you can purchase any "short" style pendulum (as indicated in the catalog or website). Examples of potential pendulums that could work would be as follows: #19002, #20095, #19001, and #19070. You can search these on the Klockit website for more info (such as length, bob diameter, etc).

I am not certain about the springs for the chime hammers, but admit that my mechanical knowledge is general at best. Perhaps our technician would be able to help identify these parts. Also note that she would be able to make recommendations for additional clock part suppliers if we should not happen to carry the items you are in need of.
