Yep, I've got one, made in 2000 or so in Suffolk, Hermle movement, solid mahogany case keeps time to about 15 seconds a week, and has the choice of three chimes;) Cost me £399 on Flea-bay.

Rose's father used to make Grandfather clocks back in his woodworking days, so there is one working clock currently at her mother's house, and a couple of carcasses, one of which is Rose's and within the next couple of months we should be getting the mechanism installed and we'll then have a functioning clock :)
