Question
I have chance to buy a Hermle mantle clock in a store ,it works and chimes great and I like the clock,but the seller knows nothing about clocks.Please tell me what the 3 winding holes are for also the small knob at the back of the clock that only turns slightly both ways. Thankyou for any help that you can give me.Frank Kitts Canada.
Answer
The winding holes are provided so that you can insert the winding key to wind the clock,thus, providing motive power. You would wind the clock once a week. It's a good idea to set a routine for this procedure , for example 12 noon each Saturday. The knob on the back is the door latch. It locks and unlocks the door so that you have access to the rear of the movement, when necessary. Regards WJP
