"Historic Timekeeper: Enormous Gents of Leicester PulSynetic Industrial Clock"
Command any room with this historic and rare Gents of Leicester industrial clock. This monumental piece has a 48-inch diameter, a weight of 80kg, and the build quality to give it a truly unique design, a clear statement piece for any setting.
Bearing the "PULSYNETIC ELECTRIC" casting—a reference to Gents' innovative timekeeping technology, that allows for a master clock to send accurate pulses to slave clocks—this clock offers more than just time; it offers an important piece of horological history. Its beautiful spade hands and original weighted 30-second slave movement add to its industrial character and design.
The clock, with its original details, has an industrial charm that tells a story. While its precise origins are unconfirmed, it is thought to originate from a building on Queens Square in Bristol.
This exceptional clock is ready for use and comes with a modern impulse driver, designed to work perfectly with the original slave movement. You can choose between mains or battery power but running this on mains is advised.
The truly huge scale of this statement piece will be clearly apparent within the product images through the inclusion of a life size wooden figure.
