About the Item

This 1970s flip clock by Sankyo is a vibrant example of Japanese Space Age design. Crafted in Japan, the clock features a glossy orange plastic casing with smooth curves and a mechanical black-and-white flip display. It epitomizes the futuristic optimism of the late mid-century modern era and remains a sought-after collectible today. Its compact dimensions and bold form make it ideal for desks, bookshelves, or bedside tables. The mechanism functions smoothly and quietly, with the characteristic rhythmic flip of digits marking time. Sankyo was among the leaders in Japanese timekeeping design, and this piece is a beautiful expression of that legacy. A must-have for lovers of 1970s technology, playful modernism, and Japanese industrial aesthetics. Dimensions: 13.5 × 7.5 × 7 cm Origin: Japan Condition: Excellent vintage condition, fully working
