This is one of my miniature clocks with a watch movement.
It is called the BOOK OF TIME
It is 2.30 inches wide, 2.33 inches high & 0.62 inches thick, when book is closed.
The "clock page" is spring loaded, so when the book is opened, the clock flips up into position.
The inside of the book cover is marked:
Genuine Leather
Made in U.S.A.
The dial is 19.08 x 22.34 mm and is marked:
SHETLAND
MADE IN GERMANY
The movement is 19.39 mm and is marked:
DEAUVILLE WATCH CO.
SEVENTEEN 17 JEWELS
