Junghans - Chess set - Chess Clock Foreign Junghans - Wood

Klok vervaardigd rond 1920 in Duitsland. Hoewel op de wijzerplaat FOREIGN staat vermeld, lijkt het er op dat het uurwerken van Junghans zijn. (2802500-schachuhr-junghans-um-1915-1920) Deze bijzondere klok is gemaakt bij Junghans en ze heeft dienst gedaan bij H.D.C., de Haarlemse Dam Club (The Harlem Checkers Club). Bijzonder bij deze klok is dat de uurwerken worden aan- en afgezet door middel van een balkje aan de onderkant van de klok. De uurwerken lopen vrijwel als nieuw en tikken regelmatig. Dit is dus een uiterst unieke schaakklok uit een periode van "toen" en ademt een ongelofelijke hoeveelheid nostalgie uit. Schaak- en/of damklokken met een zogenoemd beurtbalkje zijn uiterst zeldzaam aan het worden, Met name als ze nog in werkende en goede staat verkeren, zoals deze. Klok wordt goed verpakt en verzekerd verzonden. Uurwerken doen het prima! Deze prachtige klok wordt goed verpakt en verzekerd verzonden.

Junghans - Chess set - Chess Clock Foreign Junghans - Wood

Clock manufactured around 1920 in Germany. Although the dial indicates FOREIGN, it appears to be a Junghans movement.
This special clock was made by Junghans and was used by H.D.C., the Haarlem Dam Club (The Harlem Checkers Club).
What is special about this clock is that the movements are turned on and off using a bar at the bottom of the clock.
The clocks run almost like new and tick regularly.

This is an extremely unique chess clock from a period of "then" and exudes an incredible amount of nostalgia. Chess and/or checkers clocks with a so-called turn indicator are becoming very rare, especially when they are still in working and good condition, like this one.

Clock is well packed and sent insured.

The clocks are working fine!

This beautiful clock will be shipped well-packaged and insured.
