Timepiece

Found. A vintage, circa 1962, electronic wall clock;
the ATO-MAT S, made by Junghans, a German company known to be one of the most innovative watch companies in the world.

I love the look. Uber sophisticated with it's deep metal frame inset with the matte brushed finished face. Topping it off is a substantial leather strap with hefty brass 'hook'.

I like to give all items I sell a good test run. It is currently ticking consistently in my hallway. When I am confident about it's mechanics I will be listing it in my shop...

GORGEOUS! I love the leather strap...at first, it looked like ribbon, but I love the surprise one enjoys on closer inspection.

I agree. I love the use of textures in this piece. 'Refined Industrial' I would call it!
