Couaillet Freres are discussed by Leigh Extence in his article The Carriage Clock Makers of Saint-Nicolas-d'Aliermont published in National Association of Watch & Clock Collectors Bulletin, 2020; where they are described as being one of the most prolific of the carriage clock makers of carriage clocks operating from the horological town of Saint-Nicolas-d'Aliermont (near Dieppe) during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In 1885 Armand Couaillet was employed by the prominent maker Albert Villon, but in 1892 he and his brothers Denis and Ernest set up their own workshops in the centre of the town as Couaillet freres. They increased the size of the concern when buying the house and workshops of Delépine-Barrois across the road in 1912. Condition Report: The first (larger of the two) is in working condition and appears all-original with no noticeable replacements. The movement however would benefit from a clean and overhaul. The dial has a light hairline crack across the lower left corner and another across the right which is not visible due to being behind the frame, otherwise appears to be in good original condition. The case is a little dull/tarnished but is free from visible faults including the glasses. The second is also in good original working condition. The dial is undamaged - there are traces of a retailer's signature on the chapter ring. The case is in very good condition with no visible damage; the gilding has overall patchy oxidation.There is one key with the lot (fits both) but no travelling cases. Condition Report Disclaimer

Pilkington who was the Borough Meteorologist for the area around Buxton 1923-62, and appears to be based on the principals first incorporated by Negretti and Zambra into their 'weather forecaster' patented in 1915, an example of which is also included in the lot. Negretti and Zambra's design used actual weather conditions over a ten-year period and was said to be 80% accurate by the Manufacturers. By setting the wind direction and barometer reading on the outer two scales, the weather can be forecast by reading the letter that appears within the appropriate sector in the centre of the dial taking into account whether the pressure has been rising, falling or remaining steady and the season (summer or winter).
