Description

Always popular and therefore often faked, this is a genuine c1950 RAF 'Type 3' Elliott wall clock. These replaced the lower quality type 2's as material supplies became better after the war finished. So we have a solid oak case and are back to a pendulum movement vs the plywood and platforms of the type 2s.

The movements are of 'going barrel' design vs the fusees of the type 1's, but are well made (nothing Elliott turned out was poor quality - It wasn't in their DNA!). Weekly wind. All fully and professionally restored.

Solid Oak case. Heavy brass bezel with silvered brass sight-ring. 8-day duration good quality going-barrel (non fusee) movement with tall 'A' frame plates. 14" steel dial. Original painted brass hands, ribbed for strength.

The overall diameter is approx 44cm diameter, 13cm deep.
We retained a Photographic record pre-restoration.
