I always wanted one of these, and finally found one at a reasonable price. It works, though it seems to gain time. The case is in good shape, and according to some of the info I have found, is plated with 24 carat gold. Mine is an earlier model, built in October of 1953. There are many sources for replacement parts, too. A neat piece, and now I know the secret of how they work.

VERY COOL CLOCK!!!!!!!!!
