Answer
I don't understand what you want of me.  I presume there was a previous request to which I responded requesting backplate information.  If this be the case I cannot find the originating inquiry on the allexperts files that are available to me.  From what you have provided in this communication I can tell you your clock was made by Franz Hermle & Sons, Gosheim-Blackforest, Germany.  I suspect it is a model 140/150 but cannot really tell without more information.  I hope this helps you.  If there was a previous communication, please send me its date, perhaps I could locate it by that means on allexperts.  Regards WJP
