I have one. When I was knee high to a grasshopper, I used to go to my grandmothers house on the weekends and wind her grandfathers clock. She told me it would be mine some day. Well back in 2000, that day came when she passed away. So now I get to enjoy it and remember the good times at her house. I wind it every Wednesday. That way if we go away over the weekend it doesn't run out.
