Beer drinker in traditional German attire raises his mug
Hand-carved trees and dogs
Cuckoo bird cuckoos the hour at the top of every hour
Decorative bell tower on roof of clock
Reliable all brass mechanical movement
This cuckoo clock features a man in traditional German attire drinking a beer outdoors. He's surrounded by hand-carved trees and a few canine drinking buddies. The cuckoo clock cottage has two windows with wooden shutters and a decorative bell tower on the top of the roof.
On every hour the man raises and lowers his mug as the cuckoo bird cuckoos the hour. (Example: At one o'clock the bird will cuckoo once. At eight o'clock the bird will cuckoo eight times). The half hour is announced with one cuckoo call. There is also a manual night shut off switch that allows you to mute the cuckoo sound and stop the beer drinker.
Two cast iron pine cone weights are suspended beneath the clock case by two separate brass chains. The hand-made pendulum continously swings back and forth controlling the timing of the clock.
The 30 hour all brass mechanical Regula movement is wound once per day by raising the two pine cone weights. One weight powers the time and the other weight powers the cuckoo, cuckoo call, and the beer drinker.
*Great effort has been made to portray each cuckoo clock as accurately as possible. As with many handmade items, the exact coloration and carving may vary slightly from clock to clock. We consider this to be a special part of their character. This clock is covered by a two year limited warranty covering workmanship and manufacturers defects.
