    I think people would require better pictures to help you decide on this.

    For instance Closer picture of the clock. Back side of the clock. mechanism of clock if you know how to open the back side. Bottom of the piece. and if possible on a less busy background. This just blends into the background.

    Not to mention - full size images.

    You can edit the post and click full size instead of thumbnail.

    Oke thank you will work on that.


    I've done my best with photos, but as you can see I'm not a photographer:happy:

    We have a Jewelry Store in town that repairs clocks - maybe try looking in the phonebook/internet to find someone that can fix it - too nice just to throw away!

    From the photos it looks to me (non-expert!) as though the Spanish-made quartz movement might be the same age as the clock, which would narrow things down considerably. In that case it also shouldn't be very expensive to replace the movement.

    While we wait for someone who can make more useful observations, what do you already know? How long has the clock been in the family (or where did you find it)? Which country or region is it likely to be from?

    I've had it from someone who didn't want it ... But it's not really my taste, I've had it for years now and it's in the shed. So therefore also the question what should I do with it? Don't need it in the living room :) And the people that i got it from, are dutch, but also lived in Germany and belgium.

    I agree, not very old, and the movement can be replaced.
    If you don't want the hassle, you could donate it to a charity. I am sure there are plenty of people who would like it as a decorative object.
