SMALL BAKELITE CASED WALL CLOCK BY SYNCHRONOME
A stunning little industrial clock made in England circa 1940 by Synchronome.
Synchronome were the preeminent clock maker throughout the early & mid 20th century, commercially producing the most accurate electric clocks globally despite strong competition from companies such as Gents of Leicester.
This beautiful little station clock has a stepped and tapered bakelite case which has been stripped back and polished to reveal a wonderful brown marble effect finish.
The clock face is very clean with minimal age related patina with the attractive font and spade hands typically found on a Synchronome clock.
The clock retains the original slave movement which can be operated via a modern impulse unit or the hands can be adapted to run on a battery quartz movement on request.
The artists figure in the images is 6ft 1" to give a representation of scale.
