Hi All:

This is a very nice radio room 24 hour electric clock  made by Timing 
Devices in Springfield MASS in 1949.  It measures 10-3/8' in 
diameter, has a scale of 0-60 seconds around the outer diameter of 
the faceplate, then a 0000 - 2400 for the hours.  Inside there's a 
moving circular scale with 24 divisions and a country name for each 
time zone showing time in that zone.  This is currently set for 
Eastern Time but of course this can be changed.  There are 
(obviously) an hour hand and a minute hand but there's also a red 
sweep second hand as well.

Clock works well and keeps good time too.  The motor noise is very 
slightly perceptible.  The mail dial faceplate is in excellent 
condition (one scratch about 1" long) and there is some paint 
starting to flake a bit on the time zone circular scale.  Not bad but 
noticeable at about three feet.  However none of the paint has 
actually flaked off.

This clock used to be in my shack but sine I acquired a Chelsea radio 
room clock about ten years ago it was sat in the garage, unused and 
unloved.  Won't you adopt this puppy?  It will look great in your 
vintage ham radio shack.  I am asking $65.00 plus shipping.  If 
interested please reply by e-mail.
