    This 1950's clock stands 25cm High and while it's not my normal choice, this model looks great when polished up and I have spare parts. German Europa, renowned for a myriad of travel and novelty clock design, this is one of their forays into mantle, while retaining and basing the design on the small and humble travel clock movement and a reliable movement it is :)

      It is cool. When the light hits the dial it radiates like a sunburst, hence the name I guess. Solid brass too, which is nice.

      They ventured well! I love this.

      Yes, It's hard to find without severe crazing to the acrylic dome, but not impossible. Europa made cheap but reliable travellers clocks, not so cheap these days.

      Very very, '50's.

      They are increasingly difficult to find at a reasonable price Bryan. I think it's interesting too, not my usual, but as they say, a change is as good as a holiday

      I've sold many an Europa travel alarm. I was in Amsterdam for a weekend away a few months ago. Across the road the road from my Hotel was an antique shop and over the weekend it was closed but I'd noticed a curved Europa with sliding doors travel alarm in the window. Late on Sunday it was open so I was delighted to go over and in I went inwell the owner was having a wee in a bucket when I got there! I did buy the alarm clock but I had to search myself for exact change cos I didnt want him giving me any of his!

      A wise move GeodeJem, I wonder where many hands have been when handling money, usually dirtier than public conveniences. Europa were big on novelty clocks, I have a few, whimsy I guess you'd call them and great exponents of the '50's look. Retro is very much back in style. Be a great collection comprised of Europa clocks.
