Notes on the Hermle 461 Series Clock Movement

461 Hermle Clock Movement

The Hermle 461 series clock movement is either chain or cable driven, three weight, Westminster chime unit. It is the same movement as the 1161 series, but Westminster only instead of triple chime. In other words it plays one song instead of three. But really, people with triple chime clocks only listen to Westminster in the end because it sounds the best. The 461-853 is the most used of this series and is the most produced 461 also.

The support

We have been working on clocks for 100 years in this family. If stuck, just ask for help. In fact it does not matter if it's 10 years from now. If you have questions, by all means ask them. The warranty on this movement is from the factory for 3 years.

The speed

To get a clock movement overhauled can seem like forever. Besides costing 3 times the amount of money as the new one, it can also take months to finish. When its done, you get a working used movement back and hope it works. Not with the new one! Ships today, already oiled, instructions to put it in, no knock offs, it is the same unit. The choice is obvious. The new one will come with the cables and pulleys already installed, or the chains depending on the movement. In addition, it is already oiled and ready to go.
