wandering thru one of my favorite thrift shops,..peering into the dusty cabinets full of badly cast polar bears and lousy quartz clocks in glass shells,..and there hiding next to a ceramic penguin,...OK OK it cant be one of those,..just next to the Bradley clock i listed a litle while ago,..is a shiny enameled case with a very elegant little clock peering from it,..with shaking hands i pick it up,...OMG it IS one of those,...sloowly turn it over hoping the price isn't what it SHOULD be,..and there in silver ink,...8.00
nearly dropped it!! ok for the specs its a LeCoultre travel alarm clock 8 day movement keeping time,..of course ,..its SWISS lol,..cant find one exactly like it but from what im seeing its at least a 200 buck clock,..totally MADE my day hehehh,..might put it on ebay to help fund the clock addiction,..but im enjoying the gloatyface im sporting today,..also helps make up for selling the hand carved Buddha for what i bought it for,..and finding out it was worth about 25 times what i spent for it,..heheheh anyone know the date for this?,..has 36/4 and LeCoultre co Swiss stamped in the back
Hi,
What a find!!! 8 bucks too? Well done. The clock probably dates from the 1950's or the 1960's.
