    That is what their 1920's advertising says for these clocks.
    Found this at my local thrift for a few dollars.
    Anyone know where I can get a key for it? At the widest part it is 4" wide.
    The clock mechanism is the size of a watch.

    You wouldn't happen to have a spare key would you?

    I have a gauge and the smallest is a #3 size. It's a bit loose on the Lux.

    I do not know this guy, but he should/may know, right? Send him a picture of your clock.

    I have bins of antique keys because Jon provides keys for chests, china cabinets and old clocks. He's probably the last real locksmith around. Your photo of the key hole is too dark. Can you tell me if it's a bit or post key? One has a hole in the center and the other is solid.

    You can buy sets of pocket watch keys very cheaply. One of those should fit. (I hope.)

    Kind of looks like a 5-sided 'nut', doesn't it- i.e. 'pentagonal'????
