Regulator Clocks
Antique Regulator Clocks can look very similar to standard longcase clocks but are much more accurate than normal. Regulator clocks were made to satisfy two main desires, first by the clock maker who was always striving to improve his timekeepers' accuracy and second to satisfy the needs of professionals who required much more accurate time pieces than were generally available.
Antique regulator clocks were typically found in business places, and provided a rich look. Regulator clocks had a reputation for being highly accurate because of the precision that was built around the clock movements. Generally larger than most antique clocks, regulator clocks offered wood and glass, and could be ornate, though most were pretty basic design.
