The New Haven Clock Co. was a long-running, high-volume American maker, so most of its shelf and mantel clocks are common and affordable — typically $40–$300 depending on model, case and condition. Ordinary running mantel clocks sit toward the lower end, while more decorative cases, regulators and complete, clean examples reach the higher end. As with other volume makers, value depends on a working movement, original dial and glass, and case completeness far more than age alone. Identify the maker by its mark or label and note the model number to place it.
