Coca Cola Pam Clock. " Drink Coca Cola " Logo Diamond Shape.
Item History & Price
Up for sale is a Coca Cola Diamond Shaped Clock. Clock is in excellent condition and runs quiet and keeps perfect time. There is a chain pull to turn the lights off and on and comes with 2 Elrig LED bulbs. Background on clock: I purchased this clock about 2 years ago on eBay. I don't recall the entire original listing but it was listed as vintage with some after market items. When I received delivery of the clock the cover glass was cracked. The cover glass at that time was an aftermar...ket glass. The aftermarket glass is thinner than the original glass and is easy to spot. Also the glass bezel retaining ring was one of those aftermarket silver ones that have the cheap locking tabs on them. Anyone who has had one of these will tell you after 2 or 3 times of the tab being bent it usually will break off which did happen to me with this clock during the process of replacing the glass. At that time I did happen to have an original Coca Cola Pam clock that I was using for parts. I used the original cover glass and gold glass bezel with the thick tab to fix this clock. So this clock has the original clock case, cover glass and glass bezel retaining ring on it. This clock does have an aftermarket motor on it. It does show as a dark spot through the ad glass in the front when the clock is lit. It never was an issue with me because the clock displays well. As for the ad glass I can only give my opinion from my observation. There are so many aftermarket clock faces being made for Pam Clocks anymore it is hard to tell the fakes from the real ones. Original Pam Clocks for the most part always had production year dates on the bottom of the faces along with the city where they were manufactured. Aftermarket ones usually didn't have the year date on them just that they were from the Pam Clock Company. Now I see aftermarket clock faces showing up with production year dates on them. I have actually seen aftermarket faces of the one on this clock that does have the 1960 date on it. So in my estimation I feel the face on this clock is a reproduction. I know the object of eBay is to get the most for the item you are selling. However I feel the buyer needs to know all the facts about an item so they can make the decision to purchase. Everything stated here is what I knew about the clock before I purchased it. I bought the clock because I liked it. It is a very unique and reliable clock that will look great on your wall too.
