Does anyone in here admire/collect old clocks? I want to get a Standard
Hell yes. I've been interested in clocks for longer than I've been
interested in computers :-). All types of 'clocks' actually, from
sundials to atomic clocks.
I am (as you have probably guesed) more interested in the movements
(mechanisms, working parts, call it what you will) than the cases.
Unforutnately, antique clocks are expensive, so I can't own what I'd
really like to own, but I cvna still enjoy repairing a 1930's shelf clock
that I've bought for \pounds 10.00 or so in a charity shop (thrift
store).
Electric AR-2 slave clock (60s style). I fondly
remember that model as
the one used at my elementary and junior high schools.
Alas I cna't help you there.
