Description from the seller

Very Rare FIAT Dashboard Clock "Metron" – S.A. Officine Piemontesi (4 Days) | For Revision

Description of the Lot

A piece of exceptional historical-motoristic and collecting interest: an authentic vintage dashboard clock branded FIAT, produced by the renowned S.A. Officine Piemontesi (Via Parma 29, Turin) with a Metron movement and a 4-day power reserve.

This splendid antique accessory represents the functional elegance of cars and vehicles of yesteryear, a must-have classy detail for enthusiasts of Italian historical motoring, dashboard restorers of vintage instruments, or collectors of dashboard clocks.

Technical Specifications
Brand: FIAT / Metron (S.A. Officine Piemontesi, Turin)
Type: Dashboard/Plancia clock (Power reserve: 4 days)
Diameter: 9 cm
Depth: 5 cm
Weight: 350 g

Condition and Operation

Appearance: The item presents in its charming original state of preservation, with a beautiful patina of time on the metal case and a legible, characteristic white dial, enriched by the original logos clearly visible.
Mechanical Operation: The winding wheel properly winds the mainspring, proving the barrel is intact. When pulling the knob, the time-setting moves smoothly and correctly.
Note: The clock currently does not run. The balance wheel and gears require a technical maintenance intervention for revision and professional cleaning/lubrication due to probable resolidification of old internal lubricants.

An ideal restoration project affordable to any watchmaker or advanced hobbyist, which will restore this splendid instrument to its former glory.

Tracked shipping and careful packing.
