Removed from original plastic packaging only to be photographed. Solari Udine Cifra 3 - Diapason - cylindrical version designed by Gino Valle, is considered the perfect synthesis of technology and creative design, of design and communicative power. Cifra 3 is the smallest direct-reading clock with the horizontal vane roller system patented in 1966. It has been Solari's signature style for more than 50 years. Power supply Battery 1.5 volts (D). Direct-reading electromechanical, designed by Gino Valle and produced by the Solari company in the late 1960s. The clock has been part of the permanent collection of London's Science Musem and the permanent collection of New York's Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) since 1967. Solari's design elements are also at work daily at MoMA (Museum of Modern Art) in New York as palette displays for public information. The clock complex, consisting of the motor, mechanical part and vane rollers, is made of PVC. The inner panel, on the other hand, is made of transfer-molded polyester and fiberglass. The case that surrounds it is composed of three pieces: a transparent, polymethyl methacrylate front, an ABS thermoplastic rear casing, and a side closure with a lever for correcting the hour and minutes, also made of ABS. The moving mechanical components of which the clock is composed are: two vane rollers (one 48 for hours and one 60 for minutes) and a motor placed on the same axis as the rollers. The operation is simple, perfect and unchanged since 1966. Gino Valle's relationship with the Solari company began in 1954 with the design of the Cifra 5 electromechanical digit-snap clock (patented in 1957), consisting of 4 vertical vanes of 10 numbers each making up all the hours. The Cifra 5 watch was the progenitor of a true family of industrial-type watches, awarded the Compasso d'Oro in 1956. With the help of Belgian inventor John Meyer...
