A brass mantel clock by Smiths.
Made in Great Britain.
Super cool looking clock from the 1970s
A solid, beautifully made clock in lovely original condition.
Modern roman numerals giving a very cool look.
Brass surround with champagne dial and black numerals sitting on a brass
cross base. Domed glass.
The brass surround is in great condition, shiny and free of tarnishing.
This was fitted with an old battery movement which I have replaced with a new, very quiet, German made quartz movement, this makes it much more usable. It keeps perfect time and will run for well over 12 months with a single AA battery.
The original hands have been modified to suit the new movement, including the second hand, it is a little time consuming, but worth the effort, there is nothing worse than a clock with hands that do not match the original design of the clock.
135mm diameter x 170mm high x 25mm deep ( 5 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ x 1″)
The clocks I sell are all vintage and some will have some age related wear. I will try to bring attention to any flaws in this description.
Clocks are fully tested and are kept running up to dispatch to ensure correct time keeping.
Klokhuis Clocks
Stylish mid century clocks repurposed for today’s world.
I am a clockmaker/restorer, I have been in the business for 40 years.
All my clocks are stripped down, cleaned and repaired and serviced where necessary, new, high quality quartz movements are fitted, this does away with the need for the clock to have cables trailing down walls or across shelves or mantelpieces, unreliable clockwork movements are also replaced.
The original hands will be modified to suit the new movement, it is a little time consuming, but worth the effort, a clock with hands that do not match the original design of the clock just doesn’t look right.
My eye for detail results in a great looking original clock, flexible in location and ready to fit in in with contemporary and MCM decors.
Packaging: The packaging I use is either recyclable, reusable or compostable, the bubble wrap can be reused, I don’t buy bubblewrap but reuse what is sent to me, you can do the same, the cardboard box will recycle.
I don’t over restore, clocks are cleaned, I have developed techniques for making the metal work look as new as possible, all by hand, this is not done by machine polishing which, being harsh, will round off the clean sharp edges, the clocks just don’t look right when they are overworked, they were never like that when new!, the end result with my clocks, in my opinion, is a great looking clock in lovely original condition.
