Chalet 1-day Alphorn Player cuckoo clock with music 28cm by August Schwer

This beautiful chalet 1-day cuckoo clock is expertly crafted by renowned cuckoo clock manufacturer 'August Schwer' in the Black Forest, Germany.

Design

It features the common cuckoo clock theme of the 'beer drinking man' where, upon the hour, the beer-drinking man lifts his arm and beer glass to his mouth. To the left of the clock is an alphorn player. There is also a chimney sweep inside the chimney, who lifts out of the chimney when the clock strikes. 

Lightly stained in a walnut finish, this 1-day movement chalet cuckoo clock is perfect for adding some rustic charm and a bit of life to any living room, hallway or study. 

THIS CLOCK FEATURES:

• Moving cuckoo bird which moves out from behind its door and chimes with its 'cuckoo' sound on the hour.
• Moving beer-drinker man who lifts his beer up and down when the melody plays.
• Moving pendulum that sways side-to-side.
• Manual night-time sound shut-off lever.
• 1-day movement (which means it needs to be wound manually only once a day).
• A mechanical 'REGULA' movement which is made by the market-leader 'SBS-FEINTECHNIK' in the Black Forest/Germany.
• Equipped with a Swiss-made 'REUGE' music box which alternates between playing two different melodies upon the hour - "The Happy Wanderer" or "Edelweiss".
• Solid cast-iron 'pine-cone-shaped' weights.

CUCKOO CHIME

It features a charming hand-painted cuckoo bird which animates from behind its little door and sings in the hour (a succession of 'cuckoo' calls, corresponding to the time of day). The sound can be turned off manually at night with a 'sound-off' lever. 

MUSIC

The cuckoo clock plays it's melodies through a mechanical Swiss-made music box that alternates between the songs "The Happy Wanderer" or "Edelweiss".  The sound can be switched off at night with a manual lever.

1-day Movement

This cuckoo clock has 1-day movement meaning each day (or 24 hours) the clock needs to be manually wound. The act of winding the cuckoo clock is very easy and only requires someone to gently pull on the chains so that the weights are drawn back to their upmost position. Gravity does the rest and ensures the clock can be kept perfectly on time as the weight lowers and slowly pulls the chain back through the mechanism.
