Description

昭和42年 (1967). This Seiko battery operated mantle clock was manufactured specifically for the Japanese domestic market in 1967, which was the 42nd year of the Showa reign of Hirohito

The movement is a Seiko ''Celstar'' 5 jewel early quartz device which triggers a small DC motor on the hour to operate the striking hammers.

Unfortunately the DC motor is not working, so the clock does not strike on the hour, but the clock will indicate the correct time
