<p>[QUOTE=&quot;afantiques, post: 195086, member: 25&quot;]Elliiott of Croydon was the last of the British high quality domestic clock makers but they became too expensive to compete with cheaper imports. I think they finally folded in the 70s or 80s. They were the last maker of&nbsp; fusee wall clocks in the world. </p><p><br /></p><p>The linked item is surprisingly expensive yet the seller does not mention if it is a striking clock or just a timepiece, which seems a bit incompetent. Only a clock with a strike is a clock, no strike and it is defined as a timepiece. </p><p><br /></p><p>I agree that something under £100 is a probable sale value for the carriage timepiece in this thread. Due to the depressed clock market I&#039;d not be surprised if it cost £30 to £40 at auction, probably a tenth of the retail price new when it was made.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
