Vintage table clock branded Electronic, attributable to Italian production circa between 1965 and 1975, a period closely associated with Space Age–influenced industrial design. The compact spherical form is a clear expression of this era, conceived as both a functional timepiece and a sculptural design object. The dating is consistent with the type of movement fitted, an electro-mechanical balance-wheel movement powered by battery, characteristic of the pre-quartz transitional period, before the widespread adoption of quartz movements from the mid-1970s onward. The case is made of solid steel, confirmed by its substantial weight and magnetic response, and features a lathe-turned construction with clearly visible concentric circular satin finishing. This indicates a quality manufacturing process and a non-cast construction, with a clean and distinctly industrial aesthetic. The dial features a bold modernist graphic layout with stylised geometric numerals and clear indices on a dark background. A distinctive design element is the rotating circular seconds disc, creating a refined mystery dial–style visual effect, typical of experimental clock design from this period. The clock has been tested and is fully functional. Minor time deviations can be adjusted using the dedicated regulation screw on the movement.
