FOR OFFER: An amazing collectible SEIKO desk, table, or mantel clock that provides time for all 24 time zones, as well as 42 major cities. It is heavy, and has a convex glass crystal. I will try to put up better pictures this week. Please remind me if you need to see others. DESCRIPTION: The handsome clock has a rotating background, marking the time for the cities. You can select what city you want to be displayed at 12:00. The second hand is a silent sweep - a small jet with tiny flashing lights flying around a 'globe' or map of the world. The modern looking clock is heavy (almost 3 pounds) and stable. The clock is mounted on a glass or 'plexiglass' type face, so it 'floats' and one can see through the glass rim that surrounds the brass ring. The heavy metal frame is very dark gray, brushed on the sides, and highly polished and reflective on the face. It looks like dark, almost black titanium. Moving in toward the center, the clock is composed of several layers. First, t is a band of clear glass surrounding the works. Next is a brushed brass or gold color ring containing the 12 hours in roman numerals. That ring is framed in polished brass rings. Adjacent to it is the black 'bezel' with the cities marked on it. It does not rotate, but can be moved so the city of your choice is easiest to read...at the 12:00 spot. Next comes the black background with the 24 hours printed on it. This entire background ROTATES to mark the time for the cities. Over this is the glass face with the world map printed on it in gray. That crystal has a beveled edge and is a convex glass crystal. Over all of this is the large glass crystal framed in with the heavy dark grey / black metal rim. Similar world time clocks from SEIKO carry MSRPs of $100 - $375. This one was originally priced around $200.00. This impressive, handsome time piece was used in the office of an international company. We have placed a modest reserve on this fine clock. CONDITION: It is in excellent (nearly perfect) working condition, with no damage, dents, or dings, and is suitable for a gift. Unfortunately, it does not have the original box or papers. Although t are a couple fine scratches on the back side, t are NO scratches on the metal frame, and none on the glass. Registration number: It is marked # 00Z635K MEASUREMENTS: 8 1/8 inches H x 8.5" wide x 2" deep at the thickest (center with convex glass.) The clock has an interesting form, as it is thicker at the bottom (about 2 inches) and is just 1 inch thick or deep at the top. SHIPPING: To the US only, USPS Parcel Post or Priority.

PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO ASK QUESTIONS. REGARDING THE CONDITION OF THE CLOCK:I have received an excellent question regarding the condition which I described as 'NEARLY PERFECT.' The clock is working perfectly. I state nearly perfect instead of Perfect because t are a few scratches on the back near the battery box. In addition, t may be something else minuscule that I have failed to see and report. So to err on the side of full disclosure, I said "nearly perfect," instead of perfect as it is not new. That being said, I honestly do notsee anyth... read more
