Howard Miller Wall Clock

[Rented Mule]

I haven’t bought any clocks before but this seemed like a nice mechanical and the price wasn’t too high ($25) that it would hurt too much if I can’t flip it for much:



I can’t tell if it runs correctly as it did not come with a key but when I start the pendulum their movement does tick along

Wanted to see if anyone could provide a rough date for this. My guess is early 1970’s as the sticker on the back included a Zip code for the companies address. Does the 75 shown on the top of the movement indicate it was from 1975?



I also cannot find any other examples online for this model number (Model #512) although the movement (151-070) seems fairly well known. Was this model known by some other name or model number?

:-) I work across the street from Howard Miller, pretty sure they can help you out ;-)
*useless info, but when we purchased our home, the original owner had put wood molding around the family room & a built in cabinet in the dining room.........all Howard Miller scrap pieces.....such a pain in the butt taking down pieces that were only 5-7 inches long!!! Would have been beautiful if they would have been long pieces.*

It's a Hermle movement. Pre-1988 Hermle movements have a 2 digit date stamp, so yes, 1975 (at least the for the movement).
