VERY RARE AND HIGHLY COLLECTABLE GIRARD PERREGAUX CLOCK

THIS IS A  GIRARD PERREGAUX SOLID BRASS DESK /WALL CLOCK PROBABLY FROM THE 50'S- 60'S. IT MEASURES 12CMS ACROSS BY 14CMS AND 6CMS TAPERING DOWN TO 3CMS IN WIDTH. HAS A SUB SECONDS DIAL THAT CAN BE SET BY PRESSING THE LEVER AT THE BOTTOM SO AS TO SET THE EXACT SECONDS IN TIME. ITS  BATTERY DRIVEN HAMMER STYLE JEWELLED MOVEMENT IS A MARVEL OF ENGINEERING. THE HAMMER OSCILLATES EVERY MINUTE,YOU WILL HEAR IT AS IT MOVES BACK AND FORTH. YOU WILL NOT FIND THIS RARE ITEM ON ANY AUCTION SITES ACROSS THE GLOBE, THATS HOW RARE THIS CLOCK IS. I BELIEVE THEY WERE ONLY GIVEN TO VERY TOP END GIRARD PERREGAUX STOCKISTS. I HAVE HAD IT IN MY COLLECTION FOR MANY YEARS AND HAVE RECENTLY HAD IT CLEANED, SERVICED AND CONVERTED TO RUN ON 3 VOLTS WHICH IS 2 PENLIGHT BATTERIES AS OPPOSED TO ITS 4.5 VOLT WHICH WAS A BATTERY LONG NOT AVAILABLE, IT RUNS BEAUTIFULLY. THIS IS A ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY TO OWN THIS TREASURE FOR THE SERIOUS COLLECTOR. N.B. I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO WITHDRAW THIS ITEM WHEN NO BIDS HAVE BEEN STRUCK. INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS PLEASE BE AWARE IT WILL BE A VERY COSTLY SHIPPING BILL AS THIS CLOCK HAS SERIOUS WEIGHT TO IT.
