Saw Clock Gravity Floor Standing Vintage Oak Stunning Rare Zaagklok
Item History & Price
This is a very rare vintage and beautiful floor standing gravity saw clock.Not many of these about that are free standing and fully working.This is a 1950s reproduction of a much earlier model.Made by the Wubba factory.Beautiful in design and defiantly a talking point with a rare dial design instead of the usual white enamel dial you often see. With pendulum to the front dial often referred to as a cow tail.Runs around a day..Beautiful rare carved wooden oak plinth and thick ...heavy stand with all brass decorations to the top to bottom including the brass plaque.Base is stamped with an Italian mark as the case was imprted. Some marks around the base but only minor usage marks.
The brass plate reads “UTAMUR TEMPORE QUOD NOBISEST”
which means “Use the time thereis”.
Never see this floor standing model often which makes it very rare indeed.Most are sold with the basic white enamel dial but this is more desirable.To wind simply push up the clock slowly to the top of the saw and let gravity do the rest..The Dutch name for a saw clock is Zaagklok..
This product will be dismantled for transit and will require putting back together which is pretty simple..No worm holes as what you may think, this is simply the design of the wood.
