Description from the seller

Rhythm Alarm Clock – Model No. 051143
Japan, 1970s – Space Age Design
This original Rhythm 2 Jewels alarm clock, model No. 051143, is a fine example of Japanese Space Age design from the 1970s, combining sculptural lines, refined proportions and high-quality mechanical construction.
The clock features an elegant ivory / off-white case, typical of the era, paired with a striking black sunburst dial. Applied hour markers with red accents and luminous details enhance legibility and give the clock a distinctive retro-futuristic character. The chrome bezel completes the design with a strong 1970s aesthetic.
Movement & Functionality
The clock is powered by its original Rhythm mechanical alarm movement with 2 jewels, a higher-grade solution compared to standard non-jeweled alarm clocks. The jeweled bearings reduce friction on key moving parts, contributing to smoother operation and improved durability over time.
Fully tested and keeping good time
Alarm function works correctly and sounds strong
Excellent dial retro-illumination, evenly diffused and clearly visible in low light
Condition
The clock is in very good vintage condition, fully original and well preserved.
No cracks or structural damage
Normal signs of age consistent with a vintage object of approximately 50 years
Clean dial, hands and markers
