Description from the seller

Vintage Space Age Wall Clock – Juwelier Hörl Augsburg (1970s Silver & Chrome Edition)
in excellent working condition - no reserve

Up for sale is a rare, authentic handmade unique Space Age wall clock originally created as an exclusive display prototype by the prestigious German jeweler Juwelier Hörl Augsburg.

This striking collector's item features a distinct stylized watch strap or stirrup silhouette, making it an incredible statement piece for mid-century modern interiors.
The design showcases an elegant contrast between a vertically brushed silver metallic front face and a deep grey circular dial. Instead of numbers, the hours are represented by twelve highly polished, three-dimensional chrome cabochons, embodying a bold 1970s futuristic pop art aesthetic.

Specifications
• Design Era: 1970s Space Age
• Origin: Juwelier Hörl Augsburg (Germany)
• Dimensions: 60.0 cm x 30.0 cm x 3.5 cm
• Weight: 1.5 kg
• Movement: Fitted with a new, silent and reliable quartz clockwork (battery operated).
Condition & Details
• Cosmetics: Excellent pre-loved condition. The brushed metallic surface and chrome hour markers maintain a stunning reflection with only minor, age-appropriate wear. The blue-painted connecting rings feature a charming light vintage patina.
• Authenticity: Retains its original production and stock labels on the reverse side, showing the vintage price calculation matrix in German Marks (DM).
• Functionality: Fully tested and running perfectly on a fresh AA battery.

Item will be packed with professional care using heavy-duty protection to ensure a safe delivery.
