Description

Vintage mid-century modern Syroco gold atomic sunburst wall clock, featuring an original 8-day jeweled mechanical wind-up movement. Classic MCM starburst design with sculptural rays and hinged glass door over the dial.

The clock has been tested and is running, ticking smoothly and keeping time. I wound it most of the way (but not all the way for fear of overwinding) which resulted in about 7 days of movement.

Mechanical clocks of this age may benefit from routine service for optimal long-term accuracy, but it is currently functional and operational.

A striking decorative and functional piece that displays beautifully on the wall.
