{"product_id":"kienzle-chronoquartz-wall-clock-1970s-mustard-yellow-made-in-germany-original-mo","title":"Kienzle Chronoquartz Wall Clock, 1970s, Mustard Yellow, Made in Germany, Original Movement","description":"\u003cp\u003eA bold and striking vintage wall clock by Kienzle — the Chronoquartz model, Made in Germany, in the most desirable colourway of its era. The entire clock is executed in a warm mustard yellow: the deep plastic case, the large dial face, and the square block hour markers are all carried through in the same vivid tone, with only the bold black Arabic numerals, black hands and contrasting red seconds hand breaking the monochrome composition. The effect is graphic, confident and entirely of its period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Chronoquartz designation is Kienzle's own branding for their quality battery quartz movement range — and this example retains its original Kienzle-branded movement and hands throughout. The condition is like new old stock — clean, bright and remarkably well preserved for a clock of this age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKienzle — Germany's Oldest Clock Maker\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKienzle were founded in Schwenningen in 1822, making them Germany's oldest clock manufacturer. At their peak they were producing five million clocks per year, with branches in Milan, Paris and London. Such was the quality of their precision engineering that in the 1960s Kienzle produced dashboard clocks for Mercedes-Benz, Rolls-Royce and Bentley. The Chronoquartz range represents their quality domestic quartz output — built to last, and this example proves it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaker\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKienzle Chronoquartz, Made in Germany\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCirca 1970s\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMustard yellow plastic — deep profile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMustard yellow, bold black Arabic numerals, square block hour markers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHands\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOriginal Kienzle black, red seconds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMovement\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOriginal Kienzle Chronoquartz — working\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10.5 inches \/ 26.5 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDial diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9.75 inches \/ 24.5 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLike new old stock — clean, bright, no fading or damage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFree tracked delivery across the UK.
