VULLIAMY IS VERY WELL KNOWN AS A CLOCKMAKER OF THE HIGHEST STANDARD AND THIS CLOCK IS NO EXCEPTION. THE MOVEMENT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION HAVING BEEN FULLY OVERHAULED IN OUR WORKSHOP. THE CASE IS ONE OF THE BEST WE HAVE EVER SEEN.
THIS CLOCK WAS MADE FOR THE STATIONARY OFFICE IN LONDON AND WAS MOVED TO NORWICH WHEN THE STATIONARY OFFICE BECAME HMSO. THE CLOCK REMAINED IN THE OFFICE UNTIL RECENTLY BECOMING AVAILABLE FOR SALE. WE HAVE RESEARCHED THIS CLOCK IN THE VULLIAMY WORK BOOKS AT THE BRITISH HOROLOGICAL INSTITUTE. THE WORK BOOK WITH THIS CLOCK NUMBER IN (1103) IS NOT AT THE INSTITUTE BUT HAVING LOOKED THROUGH THE OTHER AVAILABLE BOOKS WE HAVE MANAGED TO DATE THIS CLOCK AS 1830
