The light-colored dial features large green Arabic numerals surrounded by a black outline, typical of retro designs from the 1970s-1980s. The inscription \"LORUS QUARTZ\" is clearly legible below the 12, indicating the brand and the quartz mechanism. A rectangular black window displays the digital time \"8:40,\" adding a dual functionality to the classic analog display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe visible bezel and casing appear to be plastic, with a matte patina and signs of wear, including dust marks and slight scratches, attesting to its age. The top button, notched and black, likely serves to set the alarm or time. The black and green hands are clearly visible, as is the thin second hand. The dial is protected by a slightly curved glass, showing some signs of aging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe alarm clock rests on a stable base, with no distinct visible feet. The lower front is adorned with small horizontal slots likely for the sound diffusion of the alarm. The overall design evokes a utilitarian, functional, and robust aesthetic, typical of bedside alarm clocks from the late 20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe general style and typography of the dial place this item in the retro movement, with a sober and efficient aesthetic, ideal for vintage decoration or restoration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
