ABOUT PRODUCTID 30199
The PRIM mechanical alarm clock from the 1960s exemplifies the functional design of the mid-century modern era, created for everyday use. The case, crafted from metal in a deep, matte burgundy hue, serves as a distinctive accent, while the chrome bezel framing the dial and the angled metal legs highlight its technical character. The off-white dial with large, bold black numerals ensures clarity, and the manually wound movement with a mechanical alarm bell reflects the practical approach of the time. The clock retains its original components and proportions typical of the 1960s, with surfaces showing natural signs of age—paint chips, scratches, chrome patina, and discoloration on the dial, especially near the 1, 8, and 11 o'clock positions. Condition: good, with visible signs of use and patina, no evidence of restoration, and the mechanism serviced and fully functional.This piece tells the story of everyday mornings from decades past—the deep burgundy color and solid form evoke the atmosphere of 1960s Czechoslovak interiors, where design was intended to be both practical and expressive. Clean lines, legible typography, and the presence of patina and subtle marks preserve the clock’s authenticity and unrefined mid-century charm. Every scratch or change in the dial’s tone is a quiet trace of former years and users who relied on its precision and dependability.The PRIM alarm clock can be paired with other mid-century modern elements: furnishings with simple silhouettes, chrome lamps, or geometric graphic art.
