Freshly finished in satin black with a white bezel and converted to a self-contained, high-torque quartz movement.

At 65 centimeters, this is a large-format example, the kind that would have hung somewhere with real visibility, a station concourse or a factory floor. Because the network of master clocks it once relied on no longer exists, the movement has been converted to a high-torque quartz mechanism running on a single battery, with the original hands, including the classic spade-style pointers recognizable from German railway clocks, modified to fit.

The clock measures 65 cm in diameter and 9 cm in depth.

Suited to collectors of German industrial and horological history and interior designers seeking a genuinely large-scale statement clock for a loft or open-plan space. This piece has an attribution mark,
