Yes indeed, well done! That's a nice clock. Despite the clock's Art Deco pre-war appearance, the movement looks quite similar to later Ferranti movements from the early 1950s with the two worm-and-wheel gearing arrangement.

I work on lots of synchronous clocks, and getting the hands off can be a bit tricky, even with the proper hand pullers. I have four pullers, although none are truly universal.
