This is my old clock. It belonged to my 2x grandfather Elijah Mosher and was on a shelf in the kitchen when my dad was a boy.  It winds up.  The pendulum winds counter clockwise and the striker winds  clockwise.  Or both keys turn To the center.  The striker is loud  and not too pretty but I wind it occasionally to keep it functioning but generally only have the pendulum running.  Occasionally even the tick tock sounds loud. 
It had not run for decades but Matt Clark at the tic toc clock shop in Pecatonica can fix any clock.  He got it running.
