C. 1914 New Haven 30-day Calendar Regulator
This imposing double-dial wall clock is a spectacular example of early 20th-century American commercial horology.
While it shares the architectural spindle-top solid oak case of New Haven's classic retail models, this specific piece is a rare "ghost" in standard catalogs. It was originally manufactured by New Haven as a special-order promotional premium for a large commercial distributor—The American Wringer Co.—and was originally known as the "New American Regulator."
Clock Specifications & Dimensions Commanding the room with its impressive size and Eastlake features, this architectural timepiece was built to be seen across a crowded storefront or railway station.

Condition & Master Restoration This magnificent commercial regulator has been fully mechanically restored by our resident master horologist, Marc DeLong. Drawing on his 40 years of bench experience, Marc has meticulously serviced the movement so that it is once again keeping reliable time and crisply advancing the date, just as it did over a century ago.
We have intentionally preserved the time-worn aesthetic of both dials. The authentic paint loss and flaking is a natural result of normal wear and age, standing as a beautiful, honest badge of its history. Because of its heavy-duty 30-day springs, this clock only requires winding once a month, making it a wonderfully low-maintenance piece of living history for your home or office.
