A deep brown outer case frames a two-tone white and brushed gold dial, where raised gold Arabic numerals sit against the white outer ring and a polished spun gold centre disc catches the light beautifully. Black hands and precise dash minute markers complete a dial that is both clean and considered. The glass lens gives it a satisfying sense of depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFitted with a new quartz movement. 8 inches (21cm) diameter, 2.5cm deep.

At their peak they employed hundreds of skilled workers and supplied clocks to homes across the country and beyond. Their 1970s range combined honest British manufacture with a quietly cosmopolitan sense of style — clocks that felt neither fussy nor cold, but simply right. A Metamec from this era is a genuinely collectible piece of British mid-century and post-war industrial heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe model 5635 represents Metamec's considered approach to design: no gimmicks, no excess, just a beautifully proportioned clock with excellent materials. The layered dial — white outer, spun gold centre — gives it a depth and sophistication that holds up perfectly alongside contemporary interiors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMetamec, Dereham, Norfolk, England\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5635\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEra\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1970s\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrown with flat glass lens\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite outer ring with brushed gold centre disc\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumerals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRaised gold Arabic numerals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHands\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMovement\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNew quartz battery — silent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 inches (21 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDepth\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.5 cm (1 inch)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMade in England\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHanging\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReady to hang\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExcellent vintage condition.
