We love the clock, but it is not working properly. The cuckoo isn't working, and the time is off. I will use your online advice to fix it.
I am very disappointed with the service of the Bavarian Clockworks. First of all the clock did not arrive on time. Second I had a hard time setting the time and getting in contact with them but when I did they were able to help. Then for no reason the clock fell off of the wall when I picked it up and Put it on the kitchen table it was in pieces one of the acorn weights was off and the chain was all broken apart and when I looked closer the acorn that was still hanging on the weights and attached to the clock were coming apart. I'm sure that acorn would Have fallen off to and I believe when it broke off it just jarred the clock and the whole thing came off and went to the floor.
Pictures and videos don't do it justice. The clock itself and the company exceeded our expectations.
Tip for consumers:
Be patient with shipping, it's worth it.

Clocks
Site easy to navigate. Each Clock on the site has nice detailed photos.
Clock that you purchase will take about 10 days to receive, keep in mind that clock is coming from Germany.
Product is double boxed. Included is your paperwork, instructions on a foldout pamphlet along with a disc.
The clock that I myself had purchased is gorgeous and worth ever dollar I spent.
I will do business with this company in the future.
Personal service, attention to detail, responds to correspondence, nice experience. Clock was PERFECT, direct from Germany. Clock was so new the varnish still had the new sweet just lacquered scent. Great clock, great value, best price compared to other importers. Will buy again
My debit card was declined because there was no place to put a separate billing address (which has a different zip code than my shipping address), so I had to use PayPal. Other than that, great experience!
This is a second clock I've purchased for each my daughters first wedding anniversary- A tradition that I will keep for each of my grandchildren! Outstanding quality...unique design... treasured forever!
Great customer service. Answered our questions over the phone with no pressure to buy. The customer service agent also provided us with the contact information for a company that sold replacement weights, as we had lost one for an old 1950's cuckoo clock during a move. We ordered and received that weight and now our 70 year old clock once again ticks.
Delivery was fast. We were given a tracking number and could follow the path of our clock.
The clock arrived with our certificate of authenticity and an instruction book that walked us through the set up of the clock, and it was easy to follow. The clock itself is absolutely beautiful, the workmanship and detail is amazing. It is something we are going to be proud to leave to our children and grandchildren.
I bought my husband a clock for Father's Day & it is beautiful! Robert & I spoke a few times via email & phone do to a delay. He went above & beyond to insure I received the clock before Father's Day. Will definitely be buying from them again!
Fast response! However I have been having a difficult time getting the clock to run on time. It either seems to be five minutes slow or five minutes fast. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I just can't seem to correct it. HELP!
I am so pleased w/my clock. Have waited a very long time for an authentic Black Forest Cukoo Clock.
Being it is the Christmas Season, it only took a few short days for my clock to arrive. Packed well, and
Easy to get set up and running. Looking forward to many years of enjoyment. I highly recommend
Bavarian Clockworks to anyone.
Thanks.
I am a first time buyer. I did not know much of anything about cuckoo clocks. After educating myself I picked BavarianClockWorks to get the real, authentic black forest clock. It was the right choice! Through the entire process from picking a clock to setting the pendulum in motion the people from this company helped me every step of the way. I want to thank them for their help and also for creating a beautiful clock. I am sure that I will be purchasing another from them in the future. The craftsmanship and quality of the clock is second to none, and so are the people of BavarianClockWorks! Thanks for your efforts and time.
Easy checkout, great website, very informational.
Only issue I had was when I received the clock we wrapped it as it was a Christmas gift. When my wife opened it Christmas morning all the heads we broken off the men on the dancing figurines. Three of the figurines were not even on the wheel but loose in the box. It was an easy fix as they were clean breaks and I able to match them to the right bodies and I used a drop of superglue to bond them back. Then put them back on the carousel wheel. Can't even tell they were broken. The clock is absolutely amazing, the wife loves it.
This clock is absolutely gorgeous! The workmanship is so well done. The photo from the web page really didn't do it justice. It is so much more beautiful than the photos. It all works perfectly and my husband is delighted with his birthday gift! Thank you so much!
Tremendously positive shopping experience. I found the beautiful Schneider cuckoo clock I wanted at the best price I could find anywhere, and it arrived literally in 2 days. It was packed perfectly -- no chance of breakage, and I got it out of the boxes and up and ticking and cuckooing in just a few minutes with the enclosed instructions. Also received super-friendly and fast email responses from the kind proprietor. I highly recommend Bavarian Clockworks and am so happy with my cuckoo clock (although our startled cats are a little less happy with it! Lol).
Bob personifies true customer service of the highest quality that one does not often find. He does believe that customer interaction does not end with the sale. He is available consistently to answer any questions or solve any problem with any item purchased.He maintains a highly positive attitude towards customer problem solving. My interaction with him made me believe that his philosophy is that nothing is impossible to solve, and he will do anything necessary to resolve the customer problem. True customer support. I definitely would recommend his company to my friends based on my experience. Based on my experience, I can say to any customer,"you can purchase here with confidence and support"
I ordered the Birds 12' cuckoo clock by Adolf Herr (11T8-322/1) for my husband as a gift and it is absolutely beautiful and my husband loves it. Quality craftsmanship! Even when I inquired about changing my order after initially placing it, I received a quick response and the customer service person was very knowledgeable and friendly.
Charlie was very helpful in giving details about the specific cuckoo clock that I like. Bavarian Clockworks.com has the lowest price. I was very excited that my order came very early. But I wasn't able to open it yet because of the ongoing kitchen construction. With the busy holiday season, I'd probably open it and display it in our newly renovated kitchen after Christmas. I highly recommended Bavarian Clockworks.com if you are looking for one. I have searched into many different sites but Bavarian Clockworks has the lowest price. You pay only the advertised price and nothing more. Tax and shipping are included in the price.
Love the short videos. Wish there were more. My order was shipped promptly and I was given links to follow my order. The clock is even nicer than I had imagined. Keeps perfect time and awes my grandchildren. I bought it as a gift for my wife, but the whole family loves it.
When I received my clock, the box was just a little dented and I think UPS dropped it. The clock was not working quite right, the cuckoo didn't sound right. I contacted these folks right away and the same day they called me back, apologized and wanted to make it right. I don't believe the problem was with them or the clock, I think UPS dropped it and injured it. They immediately sent me another one and it works perfectly. They were very apologetic and wanted to resolve it right away - most companies don't want to do that these days, but these folks were exemplary. I am very impressed, will recommend them to all my family and friends, and I recommend them to you. They have quality products and they stand behind them.
I wanted to purchase a family tradition item to hand down to my children, so they can hand it down to their children. This item was a perfect fit to our traditional family values and wanted to buy a Cuckoo Clock for years and never had an opportunity. Our house flooded during the year 2016. I wanted something to signify that we are back to our "home". I am giving it to my wife as a Christmas gift. I can see the tears coming! Thanks for this opportunity and we will treasure our Cuckoo Clock for years to come!
Tried to call with a question a couple of times with no answer. Left a message. Ordered the clock today. I need it prior to Christmas. No problems with the transaction. My call was returned the same day. Very busy time of the year. Spoke to a gentleman who was very courteous and gave a lot of good information about the clock I ordered. Totally satisfied with the service and product.
We enjoyed your website and found it to be helpful and informative. It would have been nice to be able to listen to and see more examples of individual clocks functioning however. Your phone call (Bob) was appreciated and you were most courteous and helpful. Thank you!
Very good website! Wish there were more videos for other clocks!
I did not open the box, immediately wrapped it so my husband wouldnt see the name on the box. I hope it is all good! It looked as though it was well packed!
Everything on the website worked great. When I received the clock I was disappointed to see that one of the trees had come off and needed to be glued back on. Also I think that I expected better workmanship on the clock for the price paid. The wood looked rather cheap. When I hung it I must say that it looks nice and the tone of the clock is nice. However, I do think that it was very overpriced.
I contacted customer service prior to ordering to be sure the item was in stock and could arrive in time for my husband's birthday. The stock status was verified and the item was shipped the same day, so even though the shipping company was delayed a couple of days due to COVID-19, the clock still arrived with plenty of time to spare. My husband loves it. It is a beautiful piece, and he just about has the pendulum in the right position for it to keep time accurately. Thank you so much for your help!
Video of each clock would be very helpful during the selection process, though all in all a positive experience. The clock was well packaged and instructions were clear. The clock is beautiful and works perfectly, was well fitted and flawless.
