Description from the seller

Remington Lektro Wall Clock – Rare Mid-Century Modern – Minimalist Design Icon – 1960s–70s – Old Timer

-> Fully functional
There are no cracks or damage on the front. Very well preserved condition

Note:
Please refer to the last image (Image No. 11). The clock can be opened, but this is NOT recommended, as the mounting (metal piece) inside was damaged and has been professionally fixed.

For normal use, opening is not required, as the settings can be conveniently adjusted from the back. If needed, the fix can be additionally secured.

Origin:
From a clockmaker’s / business liquidation.

Important information:
All clocks are offered without a minimum price. All clocks offered receive a new branded battery before adjustment. Each clock is tested for at least one week for its function. There is no warranty on running accuracy or water resistance.

Condition:
Very good, fully functional

Notes:
Technically, the clock has been tested and works flawlessly. All photos are unedited and taken with a macro lens to portray the actual condition as honestly and in as much detail as possible. The pictures are part of the description.

Description:

This exceptional Remington Lektro wall clock embodies the clear, functional design language of the mid‑century era of the 1960s–1970s – a time when design was reduced to the essentials and aesthetics were closely linked with function.

The harmonious form with the striking, lightly molded housing and the restrained dial architecture stands as a symbol of the shift from decorative to strictly minimalist design principles. In particular, the textured housing gives the clock a distinctive presence and makes it a real focal point in the room.

Such models are now rarely found in this condition. They reflect not only the zeitgeist of their era but also the demand for durable, functional design – far from short-lived trends.

An iconic classic of Mid-Century design history and a rare collectible with high recognition value.
