Описание к видео Best Grandfather Clock Ever Made? Herschede Model 228. In 1916 It Cost $790 More Than a Ford Model T

A look at one of the finest grandfather clocks ever made. In 1916, thanks to mass production, you could have bought a brand new Ford Model T ( "In any color as long as it was black" ) for $360. But, for a mere $790 more, you could have purchased this beautiful Herschede Model 228 Grandfather Clock at $1150. Which would you choose, 3 new cars or a clock?
The Herschede Hall Clock Company set a standard for grandfather clocks that has never been matched. I call this brand, "The Ferrari of Grandfather Clocks."
Porsche's motto is: "Porsche. There is no substitute."
Herschede's motto was: "At Herschede, there are no short-cuts."
