4th Annual Antique Clock & Vintage Watch Sale

Thank you for your interest in Mark of Time’s Antique Clock Auction. Please read carefully Terms of Sale BIDDING You need to register to bid and you must present proof of identity in order to receive a bidding number. The personal information you give us will be for internal use only and not be shared with persons outside the business functions of the auction. The auctioneer’s statements during the auction take precedence over all written and verbal information given. The auctioneer reserves the right to reject any bid for cause. If there is a bid dispute over a lot. the auctioneer may offer the clock again. All antique clocks are to be sold and must be paid for immediately after the sale. CATALOG INFORMATION Catalog descriptions and estimates are to be used as only as guides. The catalog descriptions are as thorough as space allows. It is impossible to describe every detail of the clocks condition to everyone’s satisfaction. We have included high photographs of the antique clocks offered to help describe the clocks. We strongly recommend personal inspections due to differing opinions especially when there are questions regarding condition, repairs, and originality. Unless otherwise stated each clock has its original movement and is basically complete but may lack pendulum, key or other small part. If the description lists an associated movement, the clocks has a movement, yet not the original clock mechanism supplied from the maker when new. We do our best to point out major defects but are not liable for hidden damages or overlooked defects. Dimensions are approximate. Antiques inherently have minor flaws and patina from years of use, so unless we describe the clock in mint, prefect or pristine condition, expect an antique with some degree of patina and or dust. The final decision to bid, and the amount to bid is at your own discretion and liability. All lots are as-is-where-is and your bid on the clock constitutes acceptance of the item in it's present condition ...and we will receive payment immediately after the sale. ABSENTEE BIDS Our clerk will execute absentee bids on your behalf by proxy. If there is only one absentee bid on an item, bidding will open on the floor and rise in normal increments. Our clerk will bid as low as possible on the absentee’s behalf. If there is more than one absentee bid on a lot, bidding will open between the top two, one increment above the lower bid. If a duplication in bids occur, the first bid received will take precedence. If the audience matches your bid, the audience bid shall win. The clerk will place all absentee bids as accurately as possible. No system is perfect and Mark of Time will not be held liable for any errors or omissions.
