Interesting clock. If you want us to help you we need some better pictures. Maybe one without all the reflections. Maybe a close-up of the clock dial. And if you can open it up there should be markings on the Clock Works?
This could be it. http://media.liveauctiongroup.net/i/7809/9373461_1.jpg?v=8CC9FFB84EF24B0 We do need better photos to assist
In order to help identify your clock, please provide the following:
Any and all information printed, stamped or labeled on the dial, movement, case, and pendulum. This includes names, trademarks, serial/model/patent numbers and dates. Be sure to check the back of the case.
How often does it need to be re-wound? Once per day, once per week for example?
Measurements of the dial and case. Please take measurements at the longest, widest, and deepest points only.
Well lit photos of the entire case, with close-ups of the dial, movement and any distinctive decorative feature(s) or labels. (As has been mentioned, please use an angle or lighting so there is no glare of any kind)
Taking the dial off to get a good look at the movement could be a little tricky if you're not so inclined to do so. Let's leave that as a last resort.
This information can be very helpful, but it still may not lead to a definitive model or date.
You can do a search on the "Horse Regulator Clock" key words and find a lot of similar clocks made by German Manufactures like Gustav Becker and Junghans to name two. It seems to have been a popular theme but I have not found any exact matches to your clock's case so we'll need more information as mentioned above.
Your clock's case has very nice proportions in my opinion. I look forward to finding out more about it.
Thanks for sharing.

Nice clock! It's worth some money. Highly desirable right now.
