This clock has a glossy porcelain enameled steel dial with mod hour petals in citrusy colors of yellow, orange and green. The dial plate is set in a woodtone and grained plastic frame. They were probably produced in the early 1970s, one of the last made in Connecticut before production moved to Georgia in 1975.
The enamel on the heavy dial plate is glossy and perfect. The simple white exposed hands are fine. The brass second hand is slightly wavy. The plastic case is clean and undamaged save for a slight scrape. The fiberboard back is intact. The plastic motor cover is undamaged.
The motor is a version of the General Time M5 motor, set into what is called a "fit up" movement because it could be fit into many styles of clocks, sort of like the modern quartz movements. It is in good clean condition and keeping time quietly with smooth operation of the brass sweep second hand. It has a brand new modern off-white cord.
This clock is about 9" in diameter.
Directions: The time is set by grasping the knurled brass nut on the minute hand and carefully turning the minute hand. The hands are press fit and may become loose, and because they are exposed are prone to being caught or knocked loose. If the hands become loose, reset by setting the hour hand on any specific hour, making sure it is pressed tightly on the time shaft. Holding the hour hand in place, set the minute hand on the 12 and press onto the shaft. Then turn to correct time and plug in. The case may be cleaned with a mild dish soap solution on a sponge, taking care not to wet the motor or the fiberboard back.
