• Ok, so not a watch, but definitely horological!
    It’s an old railway clock.... research is in its early stages, but it’s wonderful!

    Here’s where it gets interesting though... if you look closely, the original face/dial has been reversed and repainted.... I’ll have to dismantle to find out more.....

  • Sorry to be cynical but..We have a very, very similar wall clock in our place in Ireland, it’s an Indian knock off and about 8 years old. I think the bizarre font for London may be an indicator.

  • This is undoubtedly old... the original railway face is on the reverse of this. It was common when railway companies got taken over or changed their name, to have a chap repaint it. I know about those knock offs, but I’ve had one of these pass through my hands before ao I knew it was right. I’ll update when it gets checked over by a chap who has a vast collection....
