A true gem from British horological history, this rare Smiths Sectric wall clock is a stunning example of 1930s–1950s industrial design. Crafted by Smiths English Clocks, this model features a classic Bakelite case and unlike modern reproductions or modified versions, this clock retains its original synchronous electric movement, powered directly by the mains supply. No winding, no quartz conversions – just authentic, period-correct performance that keeps time beautifully. Originally found in factories, schools, railway stations, and offices, these clocks were known for their reliability and iconic design. This particular example is in wonderfully aged condition with a rich patina and lovely aged dial. Face diameter is 26cm.
