You did very well. These clocks are superb. I have one or two I will show, too. But this one, transparent with its baguette movement, is sublime. Congratulations! [nt]

is this a big cal 101 ?
Looks like the smallest cal. they make (101) but I haven't seen it like this
No, it is a Cal 210. 8 Days baguette movement. Much bigger than the Cal 101. Gigantic, in comparison! [nt]

I knew it’s much bigger 😉
But is it the same movement just made 10 times bigger?
It looks the same
It looks the same
Not the same movement. And I think it is much more than 10 times bigger. :))) [nt]

Congrats, that's a beautiful table clock, I like it.
Thanks for sharing.
Enjoy it.

Lovely. The larger FOV with the plate and vase reveal a bit of deception! What size is the clock ? 10-12 cm? And what year was this from? Does JLC still make desk clocks? [nt]

No, they don't make them anymore. They are from the 50's / 60's. [nt]

I didn't think so (long out of production). A real shame. I would love to have one. What are the odds that Mme Renier would resurrect this line of belle horologie? :-) [nt]
To me, much nicer than the Atmos line, at least in currently available design, although the Atmos is more a mantle type piece rather than a desk piece. And I like smaller objets for my decorative pieces.
You can always hunt one, they are not too rare and you they go for a very reasonable price! [nt]

Sometimes I think mid-20th-century designers had both the best and worst of designs; either way, it clearly was a glorious time. [nt]

Till and included the 60's, it was a great era. In the 70's, let's say it is a bit more complicated. In the 80's, almost nothing interesting, in my opinion. [nt]

Very nice! To me it would be either this one or an Atmos, JLC at its best!! You're a lucky man!! Best, É. [nt]
