VINTAGE 1940s Westclox Big Ben Style 5 "Loud Alarm" Clock - Art Deco, WORKING.
This iconic timepiece features the famous Art Deco "pancake" style case and a bold, easy-to-read dial that has aged with a beautiful vintage patina.
Condition Details:
●Functional: The clock is in working condition. Both the timekeeping and the "Loud Alarm" function have been tested and are operational.
●Aesthetic: The gunmetal finish shows honest wear consistent with its age (75+ years), including some paint loss and surface patina on the metal case and base.
●Dial/Face: The face has some natural patina, which adds to its authentic vintage character. The glass (crystal) is intact with minor surface scuffs.
●Back: All original winders and setting knobs are present.
This is a "Loud Alarm" model, known for its robust ring that was designed to wake even the heaviest sleepers. It would make a fantastic addition to a bedside table, a vintage office setup, or a Westclox collection.
Note: As with all vintage mechanical clocks, a professional cleaning/servicing is recommended for long-term daily use.
