The mission accept window

Return to Ector's place and start a conversation with him. The man will want to task you with stealing a Automaton's Heart. Of course, it is a good idea to accept this mission, especially that it does not require you to get prepared for it, in any special way (Garrett will not need any gadgets, or arrows to find the artifact).

The place where you perform the job - Heartbroken - Client Jobs - Ector - Thief - Game Guide and Walkthrough
The place where you perform the job

The building where you will be performing the job is in the central part of the Old Quarter and, if you have any problems getting there, I recommend that you see the part of the walkthrough on the page entitled Reach the cathedral in the Old Quarter (the visit to the city after you have completed the sixth chapter of the campaign mode). After you walk into the central part of the district [Stonemarket - Grandmauden] make sure that you are not spotted by the guards around the watchtower. Do not approach them, though, and take the narrow alleyway to the North [Stonemarket - Muddler's Row]. Turn Westwards, at the first opportunity, and approach the gate to start the mission.

I recommend that you start the exploration of the residence [Stonemarket - Clockwise's Residence] by going to the first floor. In the main corridor, there are two Scroll Holders - 4+12G, a Letter Opener - 3G and a Ring - 14G in the bathroom, a letter in the bedroom (Ector Client Jobs - Engineer's Letter to Clockwise), two Pens - 10+4G and a Telescope - 45G. Finally, check out the storage on the side, where there is a Wine Glass - 3G, a collectible (Whiteridge's Duty - The Burnished Lady) and a note (Ector Client Jobs - Project Pendulum - Day 1), which will help you solve the puzzle towards the end of the mission, in combination with four other notes.

Not only will using the switch unlock the cabinet with the Baron's Bust - 60G, but also result in moving some of the walls on the ground floor, in the building. This will allow you to proceed. Fortunately enough, you do not need to worry that you will get lost, as concerns the order in which the switches are to be used, because there is only one path to Clockwise's secret workshop.
