    Thrift store score!

    Hey Cats,

    Cool find! I love the look of the "sort of" bridge style movement.



    Peace,
    Preston

    Cool clock! Your thrift stores are obviously much better stocked than ours.

    It's neat how it works, it seems to keep time by gear reduction as I don't see any way to regulate it, an electric motor whirs away and powers the elaborate gear set. It can either be wall mounted or by rotating the dial table top. It takes two d cells.

    Peace,
