Question
Where can I find a pendulum for a Hermle Skeleton mantel clock 22716-160791
Hi Marcus,
The numbers that you reference above are not Hermle movement numbers, so I am not sure what movement you have, and will have to assume that you are referring to the mechanical (wind-up) skeleton movement manufactured by Hermle (Movement number 791-680).
Unfortunately, this movement requires a very unique pendulum, with a large circular opening at its center, through which the hand shaft passes. This pendulum is not available from any clock supply house that I know of.
Hermle manufactures movements for other clock companies, and also makes complete clocks themselves. Your best chance of obtaining the correct pendulum is to contact whatever company manufactured your clock. If you are unable to find this information, it may be helpful to contact the retailer where you bought the clock, and try to obtain a contact to the distributor where this retailer purchased the clock. http://www.clockmasteronline.com
