Adjustable Programmer For "pulsynetic" Watches, Carillon. Gent's Of Leicester, England

Adjustable programmer for 'Pulsynetic' watches, chime. Gent's of Leicester, England, circa second third of the 20th century.
Good overall condition. The glazed wooden box protects the mechanism and allows the various 'wheels' and dials of the mechanism to be seen. In some electrically operated clocks, this box is used to coordinate all the slaves connected to the master so that the chime of bells sounds simultaneously on all elements of the system. Apparently, and due to the reliability of the system, it was often used in British schools and other similar institutions. The company that created the mechanism was founded in 1872 by John Thomas Gent, and GTGent & Co. was one of the first to manufacture electric chimes in England. After several changes, the company changed its name to Gent & Co. and was soon joined by A.E.J. Ball and began producing an electric clock system, later known as 'Pul-syn-etic'.
