Description: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE We go to estate sales regularly and come across a wide array of unique and rare items. We add to our growing online inventory daily. We pick up new items from all over the world and all over the US. We also have a growing customer wish list. If you'd like to, feel free to add us to your saved seller's list and let us know what you collect and/or need. We’d be honored to add you to our customer wish list. We ask what we consider to be a fair price for anything we sell and understand that our idea of a fair price may be someone else's 'that's too much' price. If that's the case, feel free to make us an offer and will consider it. We also have sales regularly, so check back often. There is always a Sale by TheBay! Now onto the item for sale. For sale is an extremely rare and hard to find rotating sphere clock made by one of the greatest clock makers Arthur Imhof. As you can see, this clock is a very rare design as far as clocks are concerned. The top half shows the minutes and the bottom half shows the hours which mark the time with the marker on the side of the sphere. The clock is wound with the winder on the back and we've had it running for quite awhile now and it keeps excellent time for 8 days. It does lose a few minutes over the 8 day period. This clock is in excellent working condition and looks excellent cosmetically. As you can see, there are some spots on the brass, but we'd imagine it would clean up quite well with a proper polish and cleaning. We compared this clock to several others that we've seen for sale over the years and it looks like the brass insert that sits in the brass top that has 'tempus fugit' on it is missing. It was missing when we came across this clock. We trust finding a replacement would be possible, but may take a long time. However, we trust a metalsmith could easily make an identical brass replacement if desired. This clock only stands 7" tall, but it is heavier than you may think at 1 1/2 pounds and will weigh a little over 2 pounds when packed for shipping and will be shipped FULLY insured at no extra cost to the buyer. We will be shipping this clock via UPS Ground since we have found them to be far superior to the USPS. Thanks for looking and God bless!
