Please take the time to read through my entire item description and view all the photographs. I consistently prepare accurate and detailed descriptions and provide clear close up photographs for all my listings. The aforementioned notwithstanding, note the photos are still the biggest and most important part of this or any description. As the old saying goes, “a picture is worth a thousand words”. If you would like additional photos or have specific questions just message me and I will respond ASAP. For your consideration is this tested and WORKING art deco style preowned vintage 1940’s–1950’s HAMILTON 15 Jewels 8-Days folding travel clock with alarm setting in a GENUINE LEATHER covered folding case. Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE SPECIAL NOTE AND UPDATE ON THE CONDITION Before listing this travel clock, it was first tested for a minimum of 24-hours and during the initial test period the clock only lost approximately 2-3 minutes of time. However, upon further checking the clock this morning, after over 72 hours of “continuous” run time I discovered the time had self-corrected and was, at least “for now”, accurate despite having gone through a couple of days where strangely enough the time started off a little slow and then got fast… Now, 12 hours later, the clock is still ticking away strong but the time is again 3-4 minutes behind…ugh! The aforementioned notwithstanding, because of the inconsistencies I describe, I cannot attest to the long term accuracy of the clock. That being said, given the age of the piece, I think it’s only reasonable to assume the internal mechanisms are long due for a professional cleaning and tune up. The good news in all this testing is, the clock has proven it remains functional and is still running on the initial winding 4.50 days ago so all that may be required is a little adjustment to slow down or advance the movement (using the fast/slow movement adjustment screw located on the back side of the clock – See photos #12 and #13) and/or just a simple internal cleaning as previously suggested. The clock was found in my in laws belongings when we cleaned out their house many years ago. Since then, it has exclusively been used as a display piece inside a curio cabinet for at least the past 30 years. Since I am downsizing I decided I no longer have a need for this neat little compact clock so I thought I would offer it to someone else to use and/or enjoy. For your further review and consideration I am including below a brief explanation as to what the “15 jewels” and “eight days” indications seen on the clock mean. “Jewels are hard minerals added to the mechanics of a clock or watch to prevent wear at pivot and collision points. Generally, the jewel count is a direct indicator of overall quality. A clock or watch with 15 jewels or more is considered “fully jeweled” and is a sign of a higher quality timepiece. On a travel alarm clock, the indicator “8 days” means the clock’s internal winding mechanism is designed to power the clock for a full eight days on a single wind-up; so technically, the clock only needs to wound once a week”. The face of the clock face measures approximately 2-5/8” wide and 2.25” tall. The overall measurements of the clock folded inside the leather case measures 3.25” across, 2.75” wide and 1.25” tall when the case is closed. The travel clock weighs approximately 8.0 ounces by itself. Refer to description photos #20, #21, #22 and #23 and #24 to confirm the weight and size dimensions of the clock I described. The clock has two fancy hands and is a rectangular (approx. 2-5/8” x 2.25”) art deco design with a silver colored face featuring bold black numerals that denote the time. The numerals and the tip of the clock’s arms have photoluminescent pigment so their positions can be identified in the dark. The clock face is protected by a clear plastic lens that remains clear. The aforementioned notwithstanding, and as a matter of full disclosure, there is short, approximate 1.0” long, close-ended crack (meaning it does not run all the way across the face) in the lens located between the “7” and “8” o’clock positions on the dial. This crack does not impact the functionality of the clock. Refer to description photos #1, #3, #7 and #10 to confirm the presence of the noted crack and more details about what I have described. The clock dial has (4) four lines of information printed on the center of the face between the “12” and “6” o’clock positions. This information reads as follows. Refer to description photos #1, #2, #3, #7, #8 and #9 to verify the information and for more details about what I have described. “HAMILTON” “EIGHT DAYS” “15 JEWELS” “SWISS MADE” The previously stated, the clock case is covered in luxurious GENUINE brown leather. Refer to description photos #2, #14 and #15 to verify the small “Genuine Leather” hide stamp seen on the inside lining of the clock’s cover. Overall, the leather surface remains in good condition and intact with no loose seams or tears. The leather is soft and smooth to the touch but has acquired numerous surface blemishes that are all normally associated with years of honest use, handling and genuine age. To that end, the leather has scattered stains, minor scuffs and scratches and an area that appears to be darken by old tape residue where a small piece of tape had once been applied. The noted area is smooth to the touch (it’s NOT sticky) and may or may not be able to be cleaned off with leather cleaner and/or conditioner. In all honesty, this was never an issue or concern for me since the clock was used for display only and that area couldn’t be seen when the case was opened and displayed. Refer to #5, #6, #11, #16, #17, #18, #20, #21 and #24 for more details about the leather case and what I have described. The back of the clock provides (5) five adjustments for the following function. See description photos #12 and #13 for more details. 1. Fast and Slow Adjustment Screw 2. Alarm On/Off Pull Knob 3. Center Knob for Time Setting 4. Knurled Knob for Alarm Setting 5. Wind Key to Wind Mechanism The back of the clock case is also printed with (3) three lines of manufacturer information that reads as follows below. Refer to description photos #12 and #13 to verify what is printed and for more details about what I have described. “HAMILTON” “SWISS MADE” “PATENTED” This is a very attractive genuine vintage travel alarm. PLEASE NOTE; although the clock is in working order it did lose approximately 2 -3 minutes after 24 hours of testing. Upon further checking the clock, after 36 hours of run time, I discovered it had advance approximately 10 minutes faster. That being said, I cannot attest to the long term accuracy of the clock. Given the age, I would think the internal mechanisms are long due for a professional cleaning and tune up. Regardless, this travel clock makes for a beautiful nostalgic display piece or can be utilized as originally intended. If you are looking for a neat period display piece and/or to decorate a vintage themed area of your home or office this compact travel clock will fill that need and provide you with the perfect atmosphere to accomplish the desired effect. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the travel clock or would like additional photos of a particular spot or area on the clock, please email me and I will respond ASAP. The travel clock will be shipped from Texas zip code 77362 via USPS Ground Advantage safely secured inside a 6.0″ x 4.0″ x 4.0″ cardboard box weighing between approximately 12.0 and 13.0 ounces after packaging.
