Ridgeway Clocks Serial Number Lookup: The History and Evolution of the Oldest Grandfather Clock Bran



The serial number may be located along the inside back panel of the clock. This can be difficult to access. You will have to get down on your knees and look deep into the clock's inner workings. Be careful not to upset the weights or other parts of the clock while you are attempting to locate the serial number.




Ridgeway Clocks Serial Number Lookup



To access the back panel of the clock, face the front of the clock and find the left panel that opens for repair work or tuning. Remove the panel fully. This will allow you to look at the back panel and behind the movement of the clock. Use a flashlight to find the serial number.


I recently bought a Ridgeway clock at an estate sale. (adsbygoogle=window.adsbygoogle[]).push();The model number is 9108, serial number 91039251, movement style CC, and dial style MP. All of this info is on stickers inside the clock. I found that the model indicates manufacture in 1991. What I would like to know is the title of the clock. I haven't been able to locate a good enough picture of it to be sure, but I think it may be a "Fairfax". Any help will be appreciated.Thanks,Don
