Decorative wall clock with an original enamel dial from a French Lambert Valenciennes industrial time recorder, mounted in a wooden frame and fitted with a new battery-powered quartz movement, featuring Roman numerals and a 24-hour scale, in good vintage condition, non-striking, 36 × 38 × 3 cm and 2000 g.
Description from the seller
Remarkable antique enameled dial of an industrial punch clock / time registration clock from the French brand Lambert (Valenciennes). These clocks were formerly used in factories and workshops to register workers' hours.
The original enameled dial with Roman numerals and 24-hour indication has recently been fitted into a wooden frame and equipped with a new electric (quartz) movement. This now allows it to function as a decorative wall clock, while preserving its authentic industrial character.
On the dial you can read, among other things:
“Enregistreur à Carte Cisaillée – Système Lambert – Bté S.G.D.G.”
and
“A. Lambert (de Valenciennes) – Fabricant d’Enregistreurs à St. Nicolas d’Aliermont”
At the bottom there is a plate from the distributor:
Jos. De Ry – Bruxelles (concessionaire for Belgium and the Netherlands).

Good vintage condition with signs of use appropriate to age.
Enamel dial in good condition.
Recently fitted with a new electric movement and wooden surround.
