I have a Smith Enfield wind-up clock, circa 1930s,?

that keeps great time, but the chime is off. For example, if it’s 8:00 it chimes 11 times. Anybody know how to get it back on track? It also chimes once on the half hour and that works fine.

Let the clock wind down until it stops, then put the hands right before 11:00 before you rewind it. Once the time and chime are in sync, you should be able to reset your clock at the correct time (or just wait until ll:00) to restart it. I have a grandfather clock that did the same thing, it worked for me, hopefully it will work with your Smith Enfield, too.
