Question
I purchased an emperor grandfather kit at a garage sale today and i cannot find the info i need on the emperor clock sight. bottom left of works is stamped pendell 110cm.  bottom right is erhard jauch uhrenfabrik for emperor clock company #236706. those are the only numbers i can find stamped on anything.  on the clock face box, a label B219-0040015 20.  280 x 395.  1161-853.  diskette nr.  77  von 10.  that is the only label on all boxes.  moon face has ship at sea and a stag at sunset.  the pendulum has a wood neck. i have not been able to find any numbers that match with mine. could you please send me in the right direction?

Answer
The works apparently are ones made by the Jauch company and are the 110cm pendulum length version.

Not sure what a "clock face box" is ?? a cardboard box with the dial in it?

280X395 are mm measurements of something-(11"X 15.5") the dial maybe?  

the 1161-853 is a modern Hermle company number of a mechainism still in current production. (unlike the Jauch)

so need more answers and will try to help if you have questions. Not sure what you mean about trying to find numbers that match with yours???
