TIFFANY & CO. SHELF / DESK CLOCK - PREMIER SWISS CASE & MOVEMENT This mid-century modern streamline clock is from my personal collection of vintage and antique timepieces. Elegant Tiffany
and Co. designs produced at the close of the 19th century through
the early 21st century comprise a significant category of noteworthy
clocks I've curated since 1970.The
substantial case is precisely machined and finished with grained matte
and polished gold surfaces. A thick beveled crystal covers the satin
silvered dial with crisp raised baton markers. Stick hands are easily
"read" at a distance.Imhof
along with Swiss competitors Angelus, Looping and Luxor manufactured
the best quality post WWII jeweled lever alarm, desk and shelf clocks.
The movement in this clock (produced exclusively for Tiffany & Co.)
is the final iteration prior to quartz era timepieces eclipsing
traditional mechanical works. The clock displays beautifully and holds accurate time, running a week on winding. Please study the photographs and review descriptive information for details and particulars. NOTE:
During July of 2023 the movement was completely disassembled (including
removal of mainspring from barrel), ultrasonically cleaned and rinsed,
elements checked for wear, reassembled and lubricated with high-grade
Swiss grease and two viscosity oils. The case, glass and dial were hand
cleaned. Meticulous restoration ensures reliable operation for years. Typical labor and materials cost of professionally overhauling Swiss clocks of this type is $300-$350. 3.5" high, 6.0" wide, 1.75" deep an impressive 2.1 lbs. CONSCIENTIOUSLY PACKED & SHIPPED WORLDWIDE
