Just bought a used Daniel Dakota Westminister wall clock and it does not chime.
To calibrate the Daniel Dakota Westminster Chime clock, first wind the clock fully. Then adjust the time to 5 minutes before the desired time and let the clock chime. You can fine-tune the clock by adjusting the minute hand to the exact time when the chime sequence ends. Repeat as needed until the chime matches the correct time.
I have a Walthram 31 day chime clock and on of the weights fell to the bottom of the clock. How do I fix it and why did it fall?
It depends on the clock; None of my clocks chime even once. A clock that rings the quarter hours (like the clock in the Palace of Westminster - aka, Big Ben) would chime 96 times per 24 hours. Some clocks only chime on the hours, which would be 24 chimes/day.

You cannot turn off the chimes on this clock
To correct the hour discrepancy on your mantel clock, first, ensure that the clock is set to the correct time. If it chimes an hour early or late, you may need to adjust the chime mechanism. This is typically done by locating the chime adjustment lever or screw, often found on the back or side of the clock, and carefully turning it until the chime aligns with the correct hour. Finally, check the clock again after a full hour to ensure the chimes are synchronized with the correct time.
