ABOUT PRODUCTID 30160
The PRIM alarm clock from the 1960s exemplifies Czechoslovak functional design, emphasizing clarity of form and the durability of materials. Its round metal case, painted in a warm off-white, stands on two angled metal legs. The bezel and legs feature a matte, gold-toned finish with visible patina and localized paint chips, highlighting its authentic vintage character. The dial, rendered in a soft cream hue, features large, bold black Arabic numerals in a classic mid-century font. The black hour and minute hands are accented with rectangular green luminous insets for nighttime legibility. The convex glass cover remains intact and free of cracks. Signs of age are present: a distinct discoloration on the dial between two and three o'clock, minor scratches, and patina on the metal parts. The clock operates with a wind-up mechanical movement and requires no batteries. All elements—including hands, numerals, and casing—are original, preserving the spirit of the 1960s. The overall condition is good, with genuine period wear and vintage patina.This clock speaks to the era of postwar Central Europe, where functionality was paired with attention to detail. Its geometric silhouette and balanced palette seem to declare, “Time moves forward, but abhors superfluous ornament.” Each tick marks the discreet rhythm of past decades, while the visible signs of use turn the clock into a silent witness to everyday mornings and evenings from
