Nearly one hundred years ago, back in 1922, Franz Hermle began manufacturing and selling mechanical clocks in Germany. Today, Hermle is one of the only remaining highest-end mechanical clock manufacturers remaining in the world that sells clocks in any real volume. They also continue to make high-end German-made mechanical clocks movements.
In an industry that has witnessed never-ending consolidation, Hermle remains a standalone German company, with grandfather clocks, wall clocks, mantel clocks, telluriums and astrolabium manufactured in Germany. Hermle has also built a significant USA presence, based in Amherst Virginia, where among other things Hermle USA manufactures superb quality solid wood grandfather clocks, including many tubular chime grandfather clock models. Hermle grandfather clocks, and all Hermle Clocks for that matter, are worth a special look by anyone who is serious about buying quality clocks.
Hermle’s Tubular Chime Grandfather Clocks are also both incredible pieces of artwork, and are built to provide both variety and at a more affordable price than some other brands may offer.
Brands such as Howard Miller Clocks and Hermle Clocks and Ridgeway Clocks and Kieninger Clocks all merit a special look. The variety of clock offerings, from quartz table clocks and quarts grandfather clocks to mechanical weight-driven regulators, to nested bell clock movement made as they were in the 1700s, to triple-dial moonphase mantel clocks and wall clocks that are truly heirloom-quality and can be enjoy today and for generations to follow.
