WOWSER!
Your guess is as good as mine, Bev. But since it's a pair (should be more value in a pair, right?) and both have the alternating prisms, I would...
IIRC, Johnny, it is blue. I'm hoping to hear today that my friend has had success with opening the back case.
LOL! I can see how it rather looks like one... Expo '67 was held in Montreal and there is a large Jewish community there; maybe they influenced...
OK, I liked the flowers, but I LOVE the seashells. (And I'm a "porcie!")

Terrific -- except we have to wait so long! Will cross my fingers for you!
I can't thank you enough, AF, for all your help with these clocks. When I'm next at my friend's place, we will search for marks more thoroughly....
Thanks, AF. Pretty much what I thought. The watch might sell on ebay if polished up enough. (I've got my grandfather's pocket watch which would...
The pendulum may be in the bag of bits that came along with the clocks. My friend will check, I'm sure. If marked, should we be looking for tiny...
LOL, Silver! It took a lot of "time" to take and edit the pix -- which I admit were a little slap-dash, but I'm no photographer. I do try to...
