eBay Vintage MCM Seth Thomas "Grandeur" model Mid Century Modern atomic era Starburst Wall Clock, 1960s.This is Seth Thomas "Grandeur" model, that company's take on the classic original George Nelson "Pixel" clock design. Superb Design. 32 spokes holding solid wood paddles of three sizes arranged to form three successive rings. The paddles swivel on their brass-tone metal spokes, enabling you to change the clock's look by creating different patterns with the paddles (all flat, alternating flat, etc.)The clock measures an impressive 25 inches in overall diameter. The dial is original to the clock, with its black factory imprinted hour markers and prestigious Seth Thomas brand name.In very desirable vintage condition; the brass-toned metal with expected minor age toning to frame and dial. Condition commensurate with age overall. Please view photos and if you need more visual information drop me a message, I'm happy to help.The new clock movement works perfectly, and keeps perfect time. Designed originally as battery powered (there's no keyhole on the dial) it's been recently fitted with new hands and a brand new top-of-the-line Takane Quartz AA battery-powered movement with on-off switch and thumb dial. The movement runs accurately and is silent unless you put the movement directly up to your ear, when you can hear a very faint ticking. I am experienced with packing vintage MCM Starburst clocks for safe transit. This clock will ship via UPS in a 30x30x6 inch box with ample stabilization for the clock during shipping. The size of the box is significant and is reflected in the shipping fees which are calculated by Ebay to the buyer's zip code from my zip code based on published UPS rates for the box size and weight. Please write with any questions and for additional images if needed. All reasonable offers considered Thank you for your interest in this listing. (Condition: Pre-Owned)
