This Smith Sectric Bakelite wall clock is a fine example of the the classic design produced by Smiths Electric Clocks Ltd. A masculine looking clock with an attractive patina to the face, which would be a stylish addition to any 1940s interior decor.
First produced in 1937, according to my research this is an early example. This is indicated that when the clock was made the second “S” had not been added to the branding “SMITH” on the dial of the clock and the exaggerated “T” in the word “SECTRIC”. Professionally repaired with a silent Seiko quartz battery movement to replace the burnt out electric motor. Approx. 30cm diameter.
