Will the dial at the back turn the hands backwards? if it does set the clock at 12 o'clock then turn back to eleven . wait a minute or so then set back to twelve. if this changes the dings keep doing this till it is properly set. Not sure if this will work for your clock as mine is a different make. Try it once and see if it works. If it does not change do not keep playing with it.

SOURCE: Resetting stopwatch dials - Armani AR5331

When you reset the big seconds hand to zero, the hour and the minute hand are not engaged in this function, so, there is no fault with the watch movement.
Do as follows:
1) pull out crown and set the hour and minute hands at 6 o'clock (they must be lined perfectly in opposite directions)
2) push the crown in half way back (not completely)
3) push and hold the button at 2 o'clock (set the big seconds hand to zero) and release it when done
4) when big seconds hand is zeroed push the crown back in
5) pull the crown out again and set desired time
6) push the crown back in.
If all actions described do not work, you will have to visit your nearest watch repair shop and ask to refit chronograph hand as in this case it is out of balance (not pointed at exact mark).

Rate me, please.

Pull the crown to first position (where you set the date) then adjust the dials with buttons.

Strausbourg manor quartz Westminster mantel clock. Why did it stop chiming?

Source: Wikipedia

The full hour chime is followed by one strike for the number of the hour by Big Ben (E3) (one strike for one o'clock, two strikes for two o'clock, and so on). ... The mechanism then plays two complete sets of five sequences for each complete hour.

Learn how to fix a mantel clock that chimes at the wrong hour. This simple fix will repair a clock that chimes at the wrong time. This can commonly occur when your mantel clock is laid down on its back and the timing is offset.

1 Thing You Have to Understand First On most clocks you can turn the minute hand counter-clockwise but SOME clocks are not safe to be turned in that direction. For this reason, it's best to only turn your minute hand clockwise just to be safe.

The Simple Mantel Clock Adjustment The easiest way to adjust a mantel clock chime is to move the hour hand to the hour that the chime is striking. Make sure that the hour hand shaft is not too tight or else it will not turn. Most mantel clock hands are friction held. DO NOT BEND YOUR HOUR HAND, loosen the shaft if it will not turn freely.
Once you have synchronized the hour hand with the hourly chime, adjust the minute hand to set the clock to the correct time by moving it forward (clockwise) around the clock face. Allow the chime to strike at every quarter hour strike.
Mantel clock Chime Adjustment When your mantel clock chimes the wrong number of times, your chime is not synchronized time of the clock. To adjust your mantel clock chime, proceed with the following step:

ADJUSTING THE HOURLY CHIME

  1. When your mantel clock chimes, count the number of times it chimes. This is what time your hourly striker is set to.
  2. Move the hour hand to the hour indicated by the hourly chime (count the number of gongs at the hour).
  3. Reset the time using the minute hand to the correct hour and the chime should adjust along with the clock hands as well.

ADJUSTING THE QUARTER CHIME

On most mantel clocks, you can simple remove the minute hand which is friction fit. You have to apply pressure on the tube and it will loosen. Once removed, re-install the minute hand at the correct time. From there you can rotate the minute hand to reset the time.

I have a Linden 7076 chime clock. On/off/auto, start/set, H 2 buttons, M 2 buttons, volume wheel, test button and a wheel to adjust hands. I have no manual. What do these do so I can operate it?

Step 1 Wind your clock once a week by inserting the winding key into each of the three keyholes on the front of the clock and winding until the key won't wind any more. Make sure to wind your Linden clock before attempting to set it.
Step 2 Access the clock hands on your Linden clock by opening the glass door on the front or back of your clock, depending on the model. Use the winding key, if necessary, to unlock the clock's front or back door.
Step 3 Set the time on your Linden clock by moving the clock hands to the appropriate time. The hands of your clock can be moved clockwise or counterclockwise.

Step 4 Locate the chime-selector lever that extends from the opening next to the "3" position on the clock dial.
Step 5 Move the chime-selector lever to "Whitt" for the Whittington chime, "St. Mich" for the St. Michael chime and "West" for the Westminster chime. Set the chime-selector lever to "Silent" if you don't want your Linden clock to chime at the top of every hour.

How do I synchronize a Grandfather Clock to chime correctly on the right hour?

Count the number of times the clock strikes, while leaving the minute hand pointing at the twelve, move the hour hand ( short hand) to the number it struck. ( this is the only time you should ever move the hour hand yourself). Tighten the hour hand by pressing the hour hand in towards the dial just a little. This can be done by placing a thumb nail on each side of the base of the hour hand at the center shaft. You do not want the hand to touch the dial. Now run your clock up to a quarter after, and let it chime. Now the half hour, the third quarter, and finally the hour. It should strike the correct hour if done correctly. Short version, move minute hand(long hand) to twelve so that it's pointing straight up. 2 move hour hand(short hand) back one hour. 3 tighten hour hand by pushing in toward dial. 4 check the function by advancing the clock one quarter hour at a time letting it chime in between quarters, then counting the strike on the hour. Hope this helps, and not confuses. Good Luck

My clock chimes out of secrence quarter past then hour chime is quarter to hour? how can i fix please

Sounds like the minute hand is a quarter hour off. Make the clock strike on an hour. Count the number of times it strikes, then remove the minute (long) hand, and the hour hand. Replace the hour (short) hand to the number that the clock struck, and tighten by pressing hour hand in toward the dial, then replace the minute hand in the position that it's pointing at the twelve. Now it should be showing the time that it struck. To make sure, advance the minute hand to the half hour, and let it strike the half. Advance it to the next hour, and it should strike the correct time that is showing on the clock. For example, if the clock strikes four, and is showing three, then move the hour hand to the four while the minute hand is pointed at the twelve, then press the hour hand on each side of the center shaft towards the dial to tighten it. Now advance to half hour, and let strike, then advance to the next hour. It should strike the correct hour. I hope this helps more than confuses. Good Luck

The chime of my Howard Miller mantle clock are not w/the actual hour set.How can I reset the chimes? Daylight Savings time has messed me up.

The next time it chimes multiple times turn the hour hand clockwise until it is pointing at the number of times it gonged. Next take off the dial nut off (make sure to put it in a plastic bag because they can be hard to replace) and turn the minute hand until it chimes signaling 15 minutes after. Now put the minute hand back on pointing to 3 o'clock and replace your dial nut and you are all set.

How do i synchronize chimes with clock on westminister whittington clock .

The Westminster/ Whittington clock means that it has 2 or 3 settings.
1. Silent
2. Westminster Based on the music My redeemer liveth by Handel
3. Whittington
Set the clock onto the westminster setting, this is the easiest. At quarter past the hour it should sound 4 notes. The half past should be 8 notes. Quarter to the hour should be 12 notes and the hour should be 16 notes then the striking of the hour. For example on 8 'O clock you should hear 16 notes then the clock should chime 8 times. Sometimes if the hour is out just gently stop the pendulum, check what hour the clock is striking then without taking the hands off move only the hour hand to the hour. Do not do this with the minute hand.
I hope this helps you! If you are not sure please email me [email protected] I fix these clocks.

Strausbourg Manor Wall Clock chime adjustment

It is normal for the average wall clock. Of course, this can be adjusted, but without watch/clockmaking knowledge it is impossible, because first you need to find out which part of the movement is causing early chiming - and there are plenty of them.
Super fine adjustment can be found only in top of the range clocks. Hundreds of hours of craftsmenship are spent to adjust and fine tune them. That's why they cost a fortune.
If you can not live with that early chiming, you have to bring your clock down to the watch/clock repair shop and ask for help. Be ready to pay quite a money, as this job takes the skill and a lot of time.

Rate me, please.
