Featured 2 SMALL GLOBE DESK CLOCKS?

While visiting my favorite place in the world, I stopped in to the local "junk/treasure" shop to get pictures (if she'd let me) of these two small desk clocks!! She's had them for at least a year or two, and she says they run.....I believe @afantiques is the "clock" man, but whoever can give any input on them, I would be delighted to hear it!!! Is her price fair, high or what??? PLENTY of people do stop in to her place....just an FYI.....I only have the two pictures and it was impossible to get either without some sort of reflections! They both have a flat spot on the bottom towards the back so they will 'sit up'!! THANKS as always!!!!

Edit.....they're about 2 1/2" +/- diameter.....sorry, forgot that bit......

 

Free then?
Beat her down in price I say.

 

Looks like normal retail prices. Last few on ebay sold for $60-100. Junk unmarked movement and a put together piece (not official Omega) according to a poster on another forum.

 

????????????
WHAT prices????

(I just saw that they were attached.)

 

I'm not interested for ME.....but I AM curious....I did think they were pretty neat, but if they each aren't even real OMEGA.....yeesh!!!

 

Modern and probably Chinese. For some reason the Chinese are
mad about sweep centre seconds hands, often if not usually in red.
It reminds me of a short science fiction story where the Earth was invaded secretly by aliens. They wondered why it was so easy to round them all up, turns out they were all disguised as perfectly proportioned 3 foot high real estate agents
.

Maybe the Chinese will keep wondering why their knock-offs are spottable across the room, as they stick on the red sweep seconds hands. Try Alibaba or some other Chinese wholesale source to get a wholesale price, I doubt if it is more than $30 a pop.
The one on the left has a subsidiary seconds dial as well as a sweep seconds.


Historically they have always had a love of centre seconds hands, watches and clocks made in the west to trade with China in the 19th C. were always made with centre seconds hands which must have been due to local demand as they were not typical in the west unless they served a special function.

 

Very cute,very modern and those prices are VERY ambitious !

 

Well, THANK YOU ALL, and AF in particular for your very educational and enlightening information!!!! Learn something new MOST days, I do!!!!

EDIT: Just out of curiosity....do these types of magnifying clocks have a specific name?????? Thanks again!!!
