Description from the seller

Vintage Space Age Wall Clock – Juwelier Hörl Augsburg (1970s Lime Green Edition)

Up for sale is a rare, authentic handmade unique Space Age wall clock originally created as an exclusive boutique display prototype for the prestigious German jeweler Juwelier Hörl Augsburg. This is a truly unique design object that is nowhere to be found online.

This eye-catching piece perfectly embodies the bold, playful aesthetic of 1970s European pop art design. Built on a square, vibrant lime green plastic base, the face features a beautiful grain-brushed stainless steel front plate.
The dial is defined by a raised, floating circular ring in matching green, housing twelve highly polished cylindrical aluminum or steel studs that serve as three-dimensional hour markers.
Minimalist black hands and a sleek red seconds hand complete this iconic retro design object.

Specifications
• Design Era: 1970s Space Age
• Origin: Juwelier Hörl Augsburg (Germany)
• Dimensions: Approx. 21.5 cm x 21.5 cm x 4.0 cm
• Weight: Approx. 450 grams
• Movement: Fitted with a new, silent and reliable quartz clockwork (battery operated).
Condition & Details
• Cosmetics: Good pre-loved condition. The vibrant green plastic housing and brushed stainless steel panel maintain a gorgeous luster with only very minor, age-appropriate wear. Note that three of the lower metal studs (5, 6, and 7 o'clock) show an unpolished, raw metallic finish, an intentional detail highlighting its unique design prototype heritage.
• Authenticity: A certified unique jeweler collection piece retaining all its historical verification markers on the reverse side. It features the primary corporate label showing "HÖRL D-8900 Augsburg 22", the hand-written stock reference number "3256", and the collection code sticker "VK".
• 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.
