From dream to reality?

I keep hoping that one or more of the manufacturers will unveil new modern and classic, not overwrought, maybe even art deco-ish mechanical desk clocks. Not mantle clocks, not too large Atmos type clocks, but true desk clocks, say 4-6 inch tops. Jaeger Le...
I agree.

These types of relatively small desk clocks are a highly appealing proposition in my opinion!! Filip
Quite a selection,

The Citizen, and the Glashutte are subjectively the most appealing propositions from that crop of desk clocks.... Admittedly, I would happily sell an organ for a Mies van der Rohe Atmos .... Cheers, Filip
Good experience with auctions

I felt comfortable with auctions. The game of bidding is interesting. Nevertheless, i hope you can find good places to see antiques.
Aircraft clock

I like the aircraft clock. I had hoped to get a Lemania clock from the RAFs Nimrod when we were dismantling them (some years ago now) but wasn't lucky enough. It would have made a nice momento of my career.
LeCoultre clock

I’m not sure why desk clocks aren’t more popular. I have this vintage LeCoultre clock and very much enjoy winding it twice a week. The feel of winding a clock is decidedly different than winding a watch. ...
Thank you

Simple but elegant movement, and still keeps time very well. The nice thing about clocks is you can see and admire them every day - unlike watches that are rotated daily.
Excellent!

Agreed, the one you are showing is amazing !

What about simply having a nice pocket watch (eventually perpetual calendar) that you can hang to a holder and put on your desk ? My option for now, I have an Atmos and 2 marine chronometers, but they stay on shelves, my desk is too small !!!
