Chalet 8-day musical Beer garden '2nd place - 2017 Cuckoo clock of the year' with beer drinkers, folk band, waitress, bell-tower, and dancers 63cm by Hekas

This charming chalet 8-day movement traditional cuckoo clock is crafted by renowned cuckoo clock manufacturer 'Hekas' in the Black Forest, Germany. It was also awarded 2nd place in the '2017 cuckoo clock of the year'. 

Design

Made from wood sourced locally from the Black Forest in Germany, this large 63cm traditional chalet cuckoo clock depicts a beautiful and lively scene of beer drinkers, folk band and a waitress outside of mountain chalet with a belfry bell-tower. Above this scene, on a balcony at the front of the house, a carousel of small hand-painted village dancers rotate and twirl along with the melodies - either songs "The Happy Wanderer" or "Edelweiss" - which alternate each hour. This clock also features several hand-painted elements and a detailed wooden clock face with wooden Roman numerals and wooden hands.

This 8-day movement chalet cuckoo clock is perfect for adding some rustic charm to any living room, hallway or study.

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.

Cuckoo Chime

This clock features a charming little cuckoo bird which animates from behind it's little door and sings in the hour (a succession of cuckoo calls to correspond to the hour in the day). The sound can be turned off manually at night with a 'sound-off' lever. 

This clock features:

• Moving cuckoo bird which moves out from behind it's door and chimes with it’s ’cuckoo' sound on the hour.
• Moving village dancers which twirl and rotate each hour to the music.
• Moving pendulum that sways side-to-side.
• Manual night-time sound shut-off lever.
• 8-day movement (which means it needs to be manually wound roughly once a week or eight days - see below for details about winding the clock).
• Equipped with 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. 

8-DAY MOVEMENT

This cuckoo clock has 8-day movement meaning approximately every eight days 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 utmost 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 clock-work mechanism.
