Hamilton Sangamo Synchronous Motor Clock, Style S-402, ca. 1930. This onyx and black marble clock is 7.5 inches tall and 7 inches wide. There are no chips or cracks to be found; a slightly convex glass covers the silvered dial in a nickel bezel, with proper hands. The 120 V 60 Hz motor is running but the post to set the hands is missing so you’ll have to start it when the time showing is correct. Like the others, you plug it in and then lift the curved lever in back and let it fall; that starts the motor spinning. The power cord is new.

Hamilton Sangamo Synchronous Motor Clock, unknown style, ca. 1931. This 6.25-inch tall and 5-inch-wide onyx clock lacks a Style number. It has a clean, silvered dial behind a slightly convex glass in a nickel bezel, with typical hands. The plaque on the back says it runs on 110-125 V 60 cycle current and, notably, was made in Thomaston Conn, indicating that it was made after Hamilton Sangamo was absorbed by General Time Instruments, Inc. in 1931 (GTI also bought Seth Thomas). It’s not clear how long these clocks continued to be made. The power cord may be a replacement. It is running.

Hamilton Sangamo Synchronous Motor Clock, Style S-403A, ca. 1930. This example differs from the others in this group as the plaque label says it is for 240 V and 50 Hz, rather than the usual US standard of 120V 60 Hz. This may have been made for the European markets. However, it seems to run just fine on US current. The white onyx case with green marble side accents is 7.38 inches tall by 6.5 inches wide, with a slightly convex glass in a brass bezel. The silvered dial is slightly yellowed, and the hands differ from those on most of these models. The white onyx accent piece on the right side broke in half but has been restored. The clock is running with a new power cord; the knob to adjust the time is lost but the shaft can be turned by hand or with a pair of pliers.

three different woods, with a slightly convex dial glass in a brass bezel over a bronze dial with Roman numerals and open hands. The
120 V 60 Hz movement is running, with an old replacement power cord. Something different, but still art deco! $50–$150.

Telechron Model 4F65, “Luxor”, 1935-1939. A 6.25-inch tall art deco electric clock from the 1930’s with a blue mirror and silvered dial ring with black numbering. There is a foil imitation cloisonné dial is behind a convex glass with silver hands, including a seconds hand. The red dot is an indicator that the power had gone off so that you’d know to reset the clock – those were the days; the precursor to the flashing “12:00” on your VCR. There is slight pitting to the mirror, and the dial ring is worn. It sits on a polished nickel base, with a NOS cloth-covered electric cord. It is running.
