Estimated to have been made between the 1930s and 1950s, the 24-hour dial with numbers from 0 to 23 running around the outside gives a sense of the lineage of practical precision instruments used in 24-hour operations such as the military, railways, and aviation. The depth of the years carved into the wood surface and the structure of the dial, which quietly conveys its purpose, give it a unique presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is said that 24-hour clocks have been widely used in fields where precise time management is required, such as in the military, railways, aviation, and communications, to prevent misreading of the time. The dial of this watch is made of grayish metal, and the numbers from 0 to 23 and the minute scale are arranged in an orderly manner, giving a sense of the tension of the times within the highly functional design. The four corners of the case are decorated with a wooden joint technique called ``arare-gumi,'' which conveys the craftsman's careful work that is more than just a practical item. The structure has a hinged access door on the side and a crown on the top plate to adjust the time, which is a typical British design with an emphasis on ease of use in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRecommended uses\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy placing it on your desk in your study or home office, its rare feature of 24-hour display and the beauty of the wooden structure will add an intellectual personality to your space. The visual experience of \"counting the day from 0 to 23\", which modern digital clocks do not have, quietly questions how we deal with time. For lovers of British antiques, military miscellaneous goods, and wood crafts, this is a piece that will add depth to your collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInterior coordination proposal\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e[Industrial]\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen combined with rustic iron furniture and shelves made of old wood, the functional beauty of the 24-hour dial and the warmth of oak wood create a powerful space reminiscent of a former factory or command center.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e[Japanese modern]\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe deep wood texture brings out the elaborate joints of the aragonite joints, and when placed in a study space with black or iron-colored fixtures, it creates a dignified appearance that quietly resonates with craftsmanship and practical beauty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e[Modern]\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen placed in a minimalist white wall or concrete space, the contrast between the gray dial and reddish-brown wood stands out, making it an intellectual accent to the space as a functional piece of art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout quality and condition\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs this is a reused product, there is some signs of use compared to a new product.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere may be some color unevenness due to repair marks or aging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere may be slight scratches or scuff marks due to use, but this does not affect use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere may be slight differences in color tone between the photo and the actual item.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"アンティーク・リユースセレクトショップ Fynd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52115862880537,"sku":"FYND-0003843","price":69800.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/7106\/8953\/files\/FYND-0003843_2__result.webp?v=1775206391","url":"https:\/\/fynd-jp.com\/en\/products\/antique-24-hour-clock-table-clock-1930-1950s-estimated-oak-wood-england-24-hour-dial-arare-group","provider":"アンティーク・リユースセレクトショップ Fynd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
