Question
I bought the Hermle movement years ago, and now I want to assemble the clock with the chime.  But I do not have instructions, and I cannot figure out how to assemble chime with mechanism.  Can you help?

Answer
I do not understand what you wish from me.  My guess is that you have an 1051-030A movement that you wish to install in a case.  If so do you have a case or are you planing to acquire or perhaps build one?  With respect to the chime mechanism, since it is an integral part of the movement I don't understand what your problem is.  1) Do you have the chime rods and base or must you seek them out.  2) Are you wondering about positioning of the chimes or what?  In any case I need to understand what your question(s) is (are).  With an understanding between us I am sure I can be of assistance.  Please submit your response as a follow up to your original AllExperts inquirey.   Regards WJP
