Hermle Skeleton Wall Clocks Buyers Guide
What are the differences between the Standard case and Premium cases in the Hermle Skeleton Wall Clocks?
There are several upgrades in the construction of the new Hermle skeleton wall clocks over their standard models. The overall case construction of the new series better and these use a more expensive bracing which will last longer under the conditions. They are held to the case from the top and the bottom, so the movement doesn’t move when the clock is wound like standard models. The movement supports are heavier with considerably more metal and a wider flange which is much sturdier. The dial is now also fastened from the sides of the dial to the posts, so the dial doesn’t move on both models now.
The Premium case uses posts and bell caps that are solid brass.
The lower posts are solid wrought iron which are cast in in a twisted design to eliminate any torquing in the movement especially while the weight is brought back up to the top as opposed to a threaded rod covered by a black painted tube.
Both clock movement are made by Hermle in Germany and are virtually the same. The weight on the Standard series is cast iron painted black whereas the Premium series will offer a dual lacquered finish in black and gold so it looks more like an antique finish. Again, you will see the polished brass post caps on the Premium series.
The Premium case doesn’t twist when the weight is brought up once a week.
