The movement will come already oiled and ready to go. The movement come as the movement itself with its hand nut, comes with the suspension spring and leader if its the pendulum style Hermle clock 351 - 350 movement. On the top of the hour we get to celebrate with the entire song and then it will strike out whatever hour it is. What this means is it will play Westminster progressively as it runs through the quarter hours. Then lastly as in the 351-060 unit it can have 5 hammers diagonally on the back instead. Other hammer locations are the back 4 on one side and 4 on the other like the 351-050 unit. Same with the side strike 5 hammer units like the 351-030, it fits into a shallow depth well. The 5 hammer bottom strike 351-020 pendulum, or 350-020 balance units are the most used, the movement does not take much depth and so it can be put into a shallow clock case no problem. The hammer locations are variable on this series. Often the center weight will be split into two weights on a yoke. Those units are special as they have two springs and one weight for the center. These units are all spring driven with the exception being the 351-830 and 351-850. All of these Hermle clock 351 - 350 movements take a key size 8 to wind them up and the run time is 8 days in a single wind. Also to move from here to there with no reset up of the clock. This is beneficial in that it cant be out of beat and its fine to be off level. The balance kind just has a balance wheel more like a watch on the top of the movement that acts as the escapement. It comes in a pendulum version such as the 351-020 or the non pendulum balance wheel version like the 350-020.

Or the 340-020 compared to the 350-020 are the same unit, but the plate size. Its basically the same clock movement as the 341 series except the plate size is 20mm bigger. Hermle clock 351 - 350 movement is a popular movement for the bracket style shelf mantle clock.
