Pictured above is the Westclox S5 or Bachelor. Westclox produced this clock In three colors, Black, Ivory, and Brown. Of the three the black one is the rarest, then the Ivory.
These two are in remarkable good shape for their age, the Ivory one does have a crack in the upper right hand of the lense. but other than that they are fine. They both run, and make noise when the alarm goes off. I prefer the Ivory over the black one, it just looks classier to me.
Both are 4.75 high, 6 wide, and 1.50 in depth.
I have had the black one for almost a year and recently aquired the Ivory one.
Westclox re-issued the Bachelor model in 1947 in blue and red.
