Very rare model, so you will not encounter it every day. The most impressive decoration of your showcase with vintage gizmos. This antique Albert Villon alarm clock is a true time machine. It dates back to before 1902, with its bronze body and the lion logo above his initials.
The dial is enameled on copper. This clock stands approx. 4.7" (to the top of the brass handle), 3.14" high to the top of the clock, 2.9" wide, 2.7" deep. It has a 2.1" dial diameter with Arabic numerals. Weight - 356 gr.
The movement is an Albert Villon, its acronym is a small passing lion with the initials AV.
Albert Villon at Saint Nicolas D'alièremont 1880. The Albert Villon alarm clock is more than just an antique; it's a piece of history. This is a very rare collectible item!
Caveats:
Hair on the dial. Working order, cleaned and oiled.
The body has some wear and tear in very good vintage condition.
