When you get your clocks, will you let us know whether they have second hands or not? That's the only thing that's holdong me back...

I will, but I doubt they have 'em

the kite clock has a second hand the others do not on mine

By the way,,,,second hand on Meridian's?
By the way, on the Bitossi clock at the top of this thread, was a second originally on it?
I can't figure it out anymore.

was a second originally on it?
Yes.

All World clocks
Eye clock has a second hand and the Ball clock does not, those are the two I have from All World.

Hey guys,
Thanks -- the kite and eye clocks are the ones I'm considering, so I guess I got lucky. Thanks again,

i just ordered three sets...
i just ordered three sets of Hands for various clocks from Vitra and the Vitra eye clock does have the 2nd hand as the kite, nothing else does, The lady said as time goes by(pun on words) and people are replaceing the mechanisms all the time, some mechanisms do not support the second hand, while others do.
a interesting note all the clocks that i bought from white and All world say the quartz movements were made in America, so we are leading the world in quartz movements yea!! so that makes your clocks guys and gals 60 percent made in America as that is the heart of the clock,
I did buy a new Howard miller clock for my little boys room (why i have no idea when i have 100 ) but in big embossed plastic it said made in China,
I am beginning to think that these all world furniture clocks really and truly were the best deal that any of us have come across in a long time, just not a cheap knock off,
I have had the Vitra side by side
and not even a experts could tell the difference just a different factory thats all. with American parts
HELL of A DEAL.

Hell of a Deal
Hell of a deal...but still fake.

LuciferSum
no more fake then the vitra repoductions that you say you have saved up for.
want a original for your private museum collection? go to wright20 auction or ebay and bid on one.
those are the only originals out there as any other ones including the Howard Millers reissued would be a
fake in your eyes.
It seems like the rest of us have had a damn good time reading and contributing to this thread and buying these fake clocks,for pennies on the dollar and are enjoying the fakes right now on our respective walls. and you know what Lucifersum? I bet not one of us gives a flying F***.

I showed my wife your rug that you had cleaned she loves it see any more like it let me know,

Whatever you need to tell yourself
I guess some of us care about more than money. And some of us are willing to live without those things we can't afford. (or save up for them) Pennies on the dollar or good deals - your clocks are still fake. And I'm willing to take Mrs. Nelson's word about which is an authentic piece long before I'm willing to take yours LRF.

Vintage Large Wall Clock George Nelson Peter Pepper Kit
270199464829 check this out this guy is offering 12 spacer markers with starting bid of 150.00 sounds like a hell of a rip to me as you have to get a clock movement and hands

what ever Lucifersum ...
what ever Lucifersum floats your boat and makes you happy?
do you think the Vitra clocks are green approved ? I would not want anything on my wall that is not.... Is any of the wood endangered? you need to find out as the eye clock looks like endangered teak to me, Its only a clock pal not life or death,
As far as Mrs Nelson who cares about what she says she is getting 1 buck a clock so she is happy in Shady Acres
any thing that is reissued is what it is reissued am i gonna have to get Barry to give you a lesson on the correct terms of reissued pieces.

Green
means many different things. Is it impermissible to own something made long ago to less-than-green standards ? If a piece of furniture, or a work of art, was made before there were eco-standards, should it not been enjoyed, today ?
