This Lord King Quartz world clock is a distinctive design from Japan, produced in the 1970s and 1980s. The object combines a sleek, architectural design with the functionality of a world timepiece, making it a recognizable piece within the Space Age and Mid-Century Modern aesthetic.
The clock consists of a glass casing framed by an aluminum frame and finished with wooden side panels, resulting in a floating effect for the dial. The silver-colored dial displays a world map and features a rotating 24-hour ring, allowing the time in various world cities to be read directly. The dimensions are 20 cm in height, 23 cm in width, and 7 cm in depth.
The movement functions properly, and the clock is in neat, original condition. The materials show a light patina consistent with age and use, contributing to the authentic character of the object.
This design looks excellent on a desk, sideboard, or in an open cabinet. The combination of wood, glass, and metal makes it a versatile object that seamlessly integrates into both retro and contemporary interiors.
