Metamec Bakerlite Alarm Clock
Charming electric Metamec bakerlite alarm clock with pistachio coloured surround in working order, (except for the tick/silent facility). It has to be plugged in and you have to turn the 'start' button a few times to get it started. The alarm works and emits a buzzing sound when set off. On the reverse there are knobs for setting the alarm, starting the clock, setting the time and silencing the tick.
Metamec, was a small factory based in Dereham, Norfolk, England, that started making synchronous electric clocks in 1947. They stopped making clocks when the company went into receivership in 1984.
It is wired but we have removed the plug. As with all pre-used electrical items they should be checked and installed by a qualified electrician. We cannot be liable for the purchaser not following our advice on this...
COLOUR: Green, Black & Red
COMPOSITION: Metal, Bakerlite & Plastic
DIMENSIONS: (W)136mm (H)130mm (D)75mm
CONDITION: Fair
FAULTS: The green plastic shows some age related colouring. The original flourecscent paint on the numbers and hands has deteriorated as is normal with this type of paint on older items. There is some patination to the metal. The tick/silent knob is not working, so the clock runs silent.
