Vintage 1977 Seth Thomas Bracket Mantel Clock Model E687-112 Battery Strike
This vintage 1977 Seth Thomas bracket mantel clock (Model E687-112) represents a highly collectible transitional era in American horology following the Talley Industries takeover. Housed in a handsome, traditional wood cabinet with a top transport handle, it features a stylized silver dial accented with intricate gold corner filigree and a beautiful floral center motif. Rare for its distinct engineering milestone, the clock utilizes a unique battery-operated strike movement that uses mechanical escapement linkages powered by a single "D" cell battery rather than a standard modern quartz module. Dated exactly to October 10, 1977, on the original back door instruction label, this scarce model offers a fantastic blend of classic 1970s aesthetics and mid-century mechanical innovation. It makes an excellent addition for vintage clock collectors or a striking accent piece for any retro home decor. Selling untested
