AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Very rare XL-sized clock with a tilt-down flip/flap face by the ALBA brand
The quality of ALBA clocks is recognized and appreciated by users; created in 1979, the brand saw immediate success, its name instantly becoming a symbol of value and the expectation consumers have from a brand created by Seiko Watch
In superb working condition, precise, requiring very little maintenance
Large model, width 29 cm, height 15 cm, depth 10 cm, dial with 5 cm white palette numerals, it offers visual comfort
Plastic body, powered by 2 LR20 1.5V batteries (included)
which provide power for at least a year in terms of energy
Time adjustment from the back, by gently operating the palettes
Red battery indicator light, On/Off button
It can be placed or hung
It does have some signs of wear and color fading on the back and at the wall-mount attachment at the rear (see the latest photos)
The small rear cover for the time adjustment level is also missing
Please study the photos and description well to inform yourself as best as possible
I strive to be as realistic as possible both in the description and in the photos to inform you as best as possible
