IT HAS THE ORIGINAL PAINT ON THE METAL AND ORIGINAL GLASS. ITS AN 8 DAY WIND UP MODEL THAT RUNS EXCELLENT AND KEEPS VERY GOOD TIME!! THIS CLOCK IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF A WELL TAKEN CARE- NEAR MINT , HARDLY USED QUALITY MADE CLOCK FROM THE LATE 1940’s-1950’s…… THESE WERE POPULAR WIND-UP CLOCKS MADE TO DECORATE KITCHENS , DINERS , ICE CREAM PARLORS , COUNTRY STORES ETC. IN THE 1940’s and 50’s…… YES THAT OLD , AND ITS STILL LOOKS NEAR NEW…….. NICE SAUCER RETRO SHAPE WITH A BUBBLE GLASS OVER THE DIAL….. (PLEASE SEE THE ENLARGED PICTURES BELOW) GREAT CONDITION WITH VERY FEW SCRATCHES / NICKS ON THE CASE , SMALL DENT ON THE BOTTOM , BUT NOTHING MAJOR OR AN EYESORE. THE ORIGINAL GLASS DOES HAVE NOTICEABLE SCRATCHES THAT YOU MAY ABLE TO SEE IN THE PICTURES , BUT NO CRACKS OR CHIPS. ITS ALL ORIGINAL , MOVEMENT , PAINT , GLASS ETC. ITS REALLY COOL WITH THE OLD CLASSIC ADVERTISEMENT OF THE A & W ROOT BEER LOGO. THE DIAL HAS EXCELLENT GRAPHICS STILL WITH VERY LITTLE DIRT , FLAWS ETC TO SPEAK OF….. THE CLOCK APPEARS NOT TO HAVE BEEN USED MUCH AT ALL , AND MAYBE WAS AN EXTRA AT A RESTAURANT BACK IN THE DAY. (The graphics are integral to the dial , nothing ever applied). MOST LIKELY THE A & W FRANCHISE HAD THESE DONE AND SUPPLIED THEIR TOP RESTAURANTS / ICE CREAM PARLORS WITH THEM. WE HAVE SEEN THESE BEFORE , BUT NOT IN THIS GREAT CONDITION. THESE ARE GETTING VERY HARD TO FIND IN GOOD WORKING AND COSMETIC CONDITION. THE CLOCK IS EXTREMELY CLEAN , WE DIDN’T HAVE TO CLEAN IT MUCH ON THE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE… THE CLOCK DOES NOT HAVE AN ODOR OF FOOD , GREASE OR SMOKE ETC.
