AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful antique cuckoo clock from a private collection recently inherited. It is a clock with an 8-day German movement; these clocks are highly sought after because they do not require winding for a week. The clock also features a side lever that silences the cuckoo, but allows the clock to keep running. It works perfectly, as you can see in the following video: https://youtube.com/shorts/jcPQiFcKthw?is=2Tt6rn4nFCMRMZ15
It has been hanging on the wall for some time and apparently works perfectly, but we don’t know if it requires any additional tuning or adjustment, since we inherited it as mentioned before. It measures 47 cm high from the top of the bird’s crest to the tip of the lower leaf (not including the pendulum). It is sold as a complete set, with pendulum and weights (two weights of 1.250 kg each).
Shipped with careful packaging.
We are not clockmakers, we cannot assist with starting up.
Important note: because we are private individuals and not professionals, we do not ship outside the European Union due to customs procedures, which pose an insurmountable difficulty for us.
