Early 20th-Century Cast Iron Railway Clock by Synchronome – 24-Inch Dial

A rare and commanding example of industrial timekeeping by Synchronome Electric, this large cast iron railway clock dates to circa 1915 and was originally designed for external use—most likely under cover at a railway platform or industrial depot.

Its bold 24-inch diameter exposed dial (no glass) is encircled by a weighty cast iron frame, with cast raised numerals and beautifully aged, crazed original paint. Inspecting the images you will also notice the exposure has left its mark where time stood still and the position the hands remained when the clock stopped operation have protected the area of the dial they covered leaving their imprint in time.

At its heart sits the original brass-mounted slave movement, professionally restored and now operated by a modern impulse driver that mimics the pulse of the master clock. The mechanism can be powered via mains or battery, offering flexible installation options.

A striking feature piece for loft-style interiors, converted stations, commercial spaces, or industrial-inspired homes.

The artist’s figure in the images is 6ft 1" to give a true representation of scale.
