AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A charming vintage Diehl Cavalier alarm clock, combining a distinctive mid century design with a striking black, white and chrome colour scheme.
The clock features a large cream coloured dial with green Arabic numerals, elegant gold toned hands and a separate alarm indicator dial. The chrome bezel and fittings contrast beautifully with the dark body, while the original twin bell style feet and top alarm button complete its characteristic vintage appearance.
The dial is clearly marked “Diehl” and “CAVALIER”, with “Made in Germany” visible at the bottom of the dial.
The rear retains its original controls and winding mechanisms, making this an attractive piece for collectors of vintage clocks, German design and mid century decorative objects.

Seller's Story
I curate objects with a past and a pulse.
Every piece I offer has been chosen with a sharp eye, respect for craftsmanship, and an instinct for what endures.
I work with care, honesty, and attention to detail: from accurate descriptions to secure packaging and prompt shipping. What you see is what you receive, always.
Some items come from private collections, others from unexpected places, but all share one thing: they deserve a second life with someone who knows how to appreciate them.
If you’re looking for character over clutter, story over trend, and transactions that feel human rather than mechanical;
you’re in the right place.
Welcome. Browse slowly. The right object has a way of finding you.
