Description
Thwaites and Reed are world famous for their fine work, maintenance of Big Ben and other prestigious clocks. The plaque on the bottom states: "Clock number 72 of a limited edition of 100, December 1972". This clock has a unique feature in that a central bar rotates to show you the number of seconds elapsing as the ball traverses the tilting table, each run from front to back takes one second, total time to run from one end of the table to the other is 15 seconds. Best part of all is that this clock runs well, seems not to have minded being shipped here and took off running. With a plastic replacement dust cover. Height of clock 15 inches, overall with base and cover 19 inches
