Desk Clock UTI Swiza – 8 days – Mid-Century Style – Brass and wood veneer – Switzerland, 1960s/1970s
Elegant vintage desk clock made in Switzerland by UTI Swiza, a watchmaking house known for its travel clocks and mechanical timepieces.

Design
The case presents an elegant rectangular shape with a combination of gilded brass surfaces and decorative wood. The central part houses a circular golden dial, contrasted by black Roman numerals for good legibility. A decorative gilded appliqué located in the lower part completes the ensemble.
The pairing of metal and wood veneer is particularly representative of the decorative taste of the Mid-Century period, giving this desk clock a strong presence despite its compact desk size.

The brass retains a beautiful finish and the case shows very good overall condition. The decorative veneer and the dial are well preserved.
