Flea Market Clock

[Ghondi]

I was at the local flea market and checked my favorite seller (they clean out houses and at the end of the day everything is 5 for $1 and then about an hour after that everything is free).

Picked up a few things including this clock for $0.20(got 5 items for $1).

Any idea on a value or how I should go about describing it on ebay for sale?

"Vintage Spartus Clock" would be a good title.

Now that is a Nice Clock! I collect wind ups and electric, granted they are older than your find... but I would pay $50 Nz for that...if that helps b what has that sticker on the back got on it?
I think you have a bargain

Cheers

Lol, I had planned to use that same title, but I was looking to see if anyone would describe it as modern, steampunk...that kind of thing(I am not very good at that kind of thing).

Thanks AKiwi, I hadn't actually read the sticker before....

It says:
Spartus Corporation
XSMCAN
110V. A.C. 60CY. 3W.
Mod. 643

I have a clock similar to yours, but not quite as fancy. I would have to do a little research the style of that clock. I would say steampunk is a stretch.

I would use something like Vtg Spatrus mantle shelf den office clock USA.

Definitely use USA in the title. There are a lot of people who are on the made in the USA kick and will purchase items just for that reason.

I am not a huge fan of using Mfg names unless they are fairly well known, but judging from the completed listings I would say use it.

Thank you Turtle, I know it isn't steampunk, but you seem to have understood what I meant. lol As I said, I'm not good at describing things like that(no idea what a danish modern item looks like etc.)
