This clock was a wedding gift to my parents 71 years ago. It still chimes but not at the correct time and the floor in the base needs repair as the chimes have been resting on it. The brand is - Sir John Bennett LTD London, Made in England. I would love to know its worth. I am in Australia.

This piece should not be taken lightly! This is a great piece of history founded By John Bennett a clock and watch maker. Working well into his 60's he became a Sheriff in London and was knighted in 1872 to become Sir John Bennett. I would contact a professional for better answers for worth and insurance on such a fine piece. Here is a link - www.bhandl.co.uk/
I am finding a lot of different clocks made by SirJohn Bennett of London for sale but I have not found a grandfather clock yet. The smaller clocks in good working order are starting at $280 and going up from there. I would actually recommend that you seek help from an antique dealer in your area. Not a lot of people have these clocks they are wanting to sell and this person can help you price this clock.
