Discuss Odd request. Pre-war electrci clocks? in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
As long as it was designed for use in the UK (50Hz), not the US (60Hz), it'll be OK.
The old mains clocks use a synchronous motor, speed dependent on mains frequency. The supply network frequency varies as they try to match the generation capacity to the load. You'll find that it gains and loses a little time through the day but over several days it should be spot on.
