This Smiths Sectric double-sided factory clock dates from the 1930 period and represents a mid-century industrial style. The circular piece has a dark brown Bakelite casing, an off-white dial face protected by glass, and black Arabic numerals from one to twelve. Visible details include the Smiths brand name and Sectric label on the face, a red central second hand, black hour and minute hands, metal mounting lugs on the top and sides, and a hanging suspension loop at the bottom. The clock measures 35 cm high, 35 cm wide, and 15 cm deep. Industrial factory clocks suit contemporary urban loft interiors, creative studios, or home offices. The double-sided mounting allows for installation perpendicular to a narrow wall space, hallway, or kitchen partition where visibility from both directions is practical.

FAQs

A Smiths Sectric clock is a type of British mains-powered electric timepiece produced throughout the mid-20th century primarily for commercial, factory, and railway environments.

Industrial timepieces from this period were typically constructed using moulded Bakelite or heavy painted steel casings, glass dial face covers, and synchronous electric movements.

Authentic pieces feature clear brand markings such as Smiths, Smiths Sectric, or Made in Great Britain printed on the dial alongside mid-century typography and standard Arabic numerals.

Double-sided clocks are best mounted perpendicularly on a structural pillar, hallway corner, or high-traffic interior wall to maximize visual presence from multiple angles.

Dust the casing regularly using a clean microfiber cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners on the Bakelite. Ensure electrical components are inspected or rewired by a qualified professional before use.
