AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Art Deco Zenith travel clock or desk clock, made around 1909-1920 for the French branch of the Zenith Swiss Co. After the successes at the Paris World Fair, Zenith opened a branch in Paris in 1909.
The clock is in good working condition, with winding keys on the back and the control for an alarm function.

The dimensions are;
- height approximately 8.5 cm.
- diameter approximately 7.5 cm.
- thickness approximately 6 cm.
- weight 418 grams (about 0.4 kg)

The material has developed a beautiful patina due to age and handling; the brass now has a darker sheen. You can, if you wish, simply polish the material to make it shine again.
Look at the photos for all details; the photos are part of the description.

The lot will be well packed, registered and traceable, shipped nationally and internationally.
