About the Item
Solid brass Art Deco era desk clock with 8 days movement, with a thermometer, barometer, hygrometer, and compass (in both Celsius and Fahrenheit) by the Angelus Meteo Watch Company
Circa 1930s, by Angelus Meteo, Switzerland
This unique clock and meteorological station exudes both elegance and functionality, serving as a testament to craftsmanship and precision engineering. Crafted in Switzerland during the early 1940s, it stands as a timeless piece of artistry, blending utility with aesthetic appeal.
At its core lies an eight-day operational clock featuring the rare Concord movement renowned for its exceptional timing accuracy. The clock's mechanism embodies the ingenuity of Swiss horology, ensuring reliable timekeeping over extended periods.
Surrounding the clock are an array of essential meteorological instruments, including a barometer, thermometer, and hygrometer. These instruments provide valuable data on atmospheric pressure, temperature, and humidity, offering insights into changing weather patterns and conditions.
The station's design is both practical and stylish, with a rectangular brass casing housing the rotating instruments. Each face measures 60 mm, providing ample space for clear and precise readings. Resting on a cylindrical pedestal with a round base, the station stands at a total height of 115 mm, giving it a commanding presence on any surface.
Despite its age, this Swiss-made masterpiece remains fully functional, a testament to its enduring quality and durability. Whether displayed as a focal point in a study or used for practical purposes in a home or office, this clock and meteorological station embodies a timeless blend of functionality, craftsmanship, and historical significance.

- c.1850 French Multi-Dial Perpetual Calendar Mantle Clock with Rotating MoonLocated in Greenlawn, NYMaker: Signed M. Bornert, Strasbourg Case: The small ormolu case depicts a Gothic brickwork cathedral with a stepped base, arched windows to the sides and the Strasbourg coat of arms centered above. The columns rise to an arched gable that is surmounted by decorative pinnacles and a climbing knight. Dial: The engraved silvered dials are composed of concentric rings bordered by polished gilt bezels. The time dial has Roman numerals for the hours, shaped steel-cut hands and is signed. ‘M. Bornert, Strasbourg’. It encircles the date dial that has a steel-cut indicator hand with a gilt star and a glazed center. Below are the day and month sub-dials, both with glazed centers and star studded hands, a leap year indicator dial and a digital year indicator aperture. Above is the shrouded two-tone rotating moon mounted against an enamel plaque that depicts the night sky. Movement: The carriage clock movement has screwed posts, is wound and set off the back plate and retains the original balance platform with a cylinder escapement and steel one piece balance wheel. All the motion, lunar and calendar work runs off the front plate and is partially visible through the glazed dial centers. The lunar feature is geared directly into the movement so the moon continually rotates while the day, date and month are automatically tripped as needed. The perpetual feature is governed by a set of small steel springs and levers mounted to the center calendar wheel that adjust to trip all the calendar features accordingly. The year is changed manually by pulling the knob on the back which advances the year and leap year indicator hand by one. Leap day is indicated by pushing the lever on the side every 4 years which trips the calendar hand backwards by one thus giving another day in February. Notes: Strasbourg Cathedral...Category
