Vintage YaWeiSi Quartz Retro Clock | Old 80s Design Pendulum Clock

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

A characteristic retro-design table clock by the brand YaWeiSi. This clock features a round white dial, adorned with large black numerals all around for excellent readability. The inscription "YaWeiSi" appears in the center, while "QUARTZ" is written in the lower part of the dial, indicating a quartz movement. The dial is encircled by a metallic-looking rim with a matte finish and a slight patinated effect visible on the upper edge.

The dial is mounted on a discreet, circular, centrally positioned stand, giving the clock a clean and stable silhouette. The clock rests on a mustard yellow cushion, but only the clock's base is part of the item for sale. The visible hands are classic in style: a large black minute hand, a matching hour hand, and a thin second hand, all fixed by a central metallic axis.

The overall style evokes productions from the 1980s, with a functional and graphic aesthetic, typical of office or table clocks from that period. The absence of superfluous decoration, the predominance of white and black, and the large typography reinforce this vintage and retro character.

The dial surface shows some signs of wear and a slight patina, testifying to the object's age. No decor or pattern is visible apart from the functional elements. The minimalist and timeless design easily adapts to various environments, from offices to industrial or mid-century style interior decor.

The inscriptions are perfectly legible on the front. No details are visible regarding the back, the power mechanism, or the possible presence of a battery compartment – the description strictly refers to the side exposed in the photo.

Condition

Used item sold as is, with visible signs of wear on the rim of the dial and a slight patina on the surface. Functionality is not tested based on the photo.

Did you know? The quartz movement, mentioned on the dial, revolutionized watchmaking from the 1970s onwards, offering significantly superior precision to traditional mechanical movements. Quartz clocks became popular worldwide for their reliability and low maintenance requirements.
