AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Magnificent and authentic mechanical table clock known as a “400-day” clock (anniversary clock), marketed by the prestigious French firm Lancel Paris and fitted with a high-precision movement made in West Germany by Kern around 1960

Excellent visual condition. The brass has retained its beautiful original gilding; no glass panels are cracked or missing. Very light patina from age.

The key is included, but I am not sure it is original.

The mechanism needs servicing/adjustment. The suspension spring is not broken. The pendulum swings for a few moments when started manually, then eventually stops. The clock is sold as is, ideal for a collector, an enthusiast of antique clocks, or for professional servicing.

Good luck bidding, everyone!

As with all my items listed for auction on this site, this wonderful piece has not been cleaned (only dusted) or altered since I bought it.

Any damage not mentioned in the text but visible in the photos is considered to have been described.

If you are outside the European Union, you may bid on one of my lots; however, no claims will be accepted in the event of a problem during shipping. Due to the new import/export regulations in the USA, shipping to that country will no longer be available.

Carefully packed professional shipping, with signature required and insurance.

Seller's Story

Passionate about flea markets, and antiques of all kinds since my childhood, I was already selling on this site as an individual, the joy and kindness of the buyers made me understand that it was the right time to get started in my small business, I pay particular attention to the lots offered in order to be able to satisfy you, all my objects benefit from a very light cleaning and no restoration so that you can judge for yourself their quality and condition, so good auction to all and see you soon I hope
