Oak case with rounded corners and arch top glazed front.Movement:
Gillett & Johnston Electric battery driven mechanism, pendulum rod possibly of invar. Heavy metal bob.Notes:
Has built in pilot dial.
Click for general notes about Gillett & JohnstonI have heard it said, though I can't at the moment find the reference, that Synchronome company made Master clocks for G & J. The general appearance of this case supports this view both on account of the style of the case and its door latches and also the type of pilot dial used which appears to be a close likeness to the movement in synchronome slaves.
This clock is currently in Montreal, Canada. Pictures kindly provided by Georges-Andre Dion
