Just got this clock

RING AROUND
Clocks Ahead of Time series
2287A

Strangely, mine has a label with the number 6087.

It's the same as 2287A, but mine doesn't have the slender second hand.

i...
I was going to bid on that clock as well...I forgot about when the auction ended and missed it. I really wanted it! You got it for $77. Such a great deal. I'm very jealous. I haven't found any new nelson clocks. I think it might be interesting if you posted some photos from your book of ones that we have no idea existed...i know theres got to be several that are neat and are so rare that no one knows they exist.

awesome!
thanks barry!
I really like those. That Motion Notion one is really amazing, wish I could see it in color and actually moving. The Wheel clock is beautiful as well. Irving Harper once again!

another reason why
I highly recommdend the George Nelson Vitra exhibition catalog. Amazon is now listing it (make sure if you want it in English, to get the brown cover edition).

Just got this early steel...
Just got this early steel 4760 at a yard sale this weekend for $20.00. At some point previous owner converted the original movement to a quartz movement which resulted in the removal of the second hand. All things said, I'm thrilled regardless. Wondering what type of movements these clocks originally had...same as the ball and spike or something different?
