New silent quartz movement, fully working. 20 cm (8 inches) diameter. Made in England. Ready to hang.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA refined palette — silver, gold, and brass\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere Metamec's coloured dial variants — yellow, black, copper — make a bold chromatic statement, the Model 5893 takes a more refined approach: a brushed satin silver dial set against gold baton markers and a warm brass-tone bezel, the palette built entirely from metallic tones that shift subtly with the light rather than asserting a colour. The result is a clock that reads as quietly sophisticated — the kind of design that works in almost any interior without fighting for attention, and that rewards a closer look with the quality of its detailing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe stylised gold baton markers replace conventional numerals entirely, giving the dial a clean minimalism that is very much of the 1960s — the same design confidence that drove British clockmaking at its most assured. Metamec went into receivership in 1984, and the Model 5893 represents the brand at the height of their design output from their Dereham, Norfolk factory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe clock\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe silver, gold, and brass combination works naturally across mid-century modern, Scandinavian, contemporary minimalist, and traditional interiors — a genuinely versatile palette that suits spaces where a strong colour statement would be too much. At 20 cm diameter it is compact enough for a kitchen, office, or gallery wall, yet detailed enough to be the focal point of a smaller space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Metamec, Dereham, Norfolk — Made in England\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: 5893\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEra: 1960s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDial: Satin silver with gold baton markers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHands: Black with red step seconds hand matching the originals, silent movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBezel: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiameter: 20 cm (8 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMovement: New silent quartz — fully working step seconds hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: Mid century modern, minimalist retro\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReady to hang\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExcellent restored condition with light signs of age consistent with its period.
