Braun model 4779/ABR313
analog clock radio (FM only). Classic, hard to find, I've seen these go for as much as $150 although occasionally you can find them for a lot less when they are sold by people who don't know how rare they are. It was designed by one of their top guys, Dietrich Lubs, made in Germany in the early 90s. There's a fair amount about it online. The clock is quartz crystal, same as Braun's other analog clocks except the ones like these that were G...erman-made instead of Japan or China are simply better. It sas a snooze function, protective fold down cover with time zones that automatically turns off the alarm when you close it so it can't go off by accident. I think the FM tuning is vernier, which makes it easier to tune in stations. Telescoping antenna slides completely into the case to protect it when you're not using it. I've had this radio for years in the closet, purchased it new, but never used it. All functions work fine. No instruction manual, sorry, but everything is intuitive. Takes 4 AA batteries (included but I am shipping the radio with new batteries - not those pictured - uninstalled, it's always safer). Size - 6" x 2 5/8" x 7/8", small for a fully-functional analog clock radio. I bought it when I was collecting rare radios, but don't have the space any more. Shipped with USPS Priority Mail. If you're outside the US please contact me re confirmation of shipping cost. I will not accept bids or sell to someone with less than a 94% rating.
