FA: LONGINES SYMPHONETTE WITTNAUER CLOCK RADIO WORKING/RESTORED (CYCLOMETER)

[polaris26]

Hello everyone - I hope this is OK to post - I recently had an interesting time trying to repair/restore a cyclometer-type clock radio and came across this forum. Although it's technically not a flip, I think it would have some common appeal here. I had to replace the neon bulb, the dial lamps, repair a cracked plastic cam that drives the clock minutes wheel, and repair the plastic clock mechanism mounts that were all cracked off. I also deoxidized the radio controls and gave the whole thing a good cleaning. I was pretty pleased with how it turned out. I placed the radio and outboard speaker up for bids. When I fix up old things I sell them as-is because you never know what the future holds for these creaky old creatures. I have no idea what this is worth so I started at a dollar. I am located in northeast PA USA. Please check out the listing and the accompanying video:

Whoa, now that is an interesting design! Whenever I hear the words "Longines Symphonette" I instantly think of this fantastic rendition of Oye Como Va: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCGz5VbOBt0

I hope somebody will buy the clock, it is quite fantastic looking. Definitely a conversation piece.
