Someone has given me a Seth Thomas 8-day clock and I’m wondering it’s value. It’s a mantel clock, he said it’s in between 1920-1930. Inside the back panel it gives instructions to operate and has the following: Quarter Hour Strike Movement No. 89-L
It’s beautiful and I love the chime sounds!

The clock is a ‘Unique” brand 31 day clock. The inner part of the spring has sprung and needs to be reattached. It is a very strong spring so I need detailed instructions how to.
