VinAngelus 1085 8114 Swiss 8 day wind-up desk clock & alarm, runs good, 1950s

Description: This Angelus model 1085 8114 Swiss 8 day wind-up desk clock with alarm is in good working condition, including the alarm! It's a lovely MCM style with a brushed brass metal case, and sharp features on the dial, including the number "8" in small font, just above the numeral 6, indicating that this is an 8 day clock. At the time that I am listing this clock, I have been watching the time for over 24 hours and it is very accurate! The movement is smooth, with no real sound, unless you hold it directly to your ear, then you can hear the very light fast ticking sound. There is no damage to the exterior of the case or the clear cover (which seems to be made out of a heavy type of plastic-like material, instead of glass, at least that is how it sounds when tapped). There is some discoloration to the brushed brass in certain areas, but this could likely be buffed out. The only thing that I didn't even notice when I first purchased this at an estate sale, was that on the bottom brass stand, there is an engraving that says "50th Anniversary, Walter and Mabel Plotner". Whereas, I don't know if this could be covered up or not, or even know if this is something that gives it special character, it is there. But, as you can see with the normal view photos, it isn't something that jumps out at you, you actually need to be focused on that section of the clock to see the engraving. But, I'm so tickled with this nicely working Angelus 8 day wind-up clock that I'm sure there are some other clock enthusiasts out there that will snap this up fast.
