He did it again, for those who have a partner who fusses everytime they bring in something..you really have no idea how nice it is to have one who actually LOOKS for things!!! So here it is, the find of the day!! RUSSELL WRIGHT GE CLOCK!

Provided the motor is running full speed in sync with 60Hz AC, these clocks are always more accurate than any battery-powered quartz clock with the exception of radio controlled "atomic" clocks.

Sometimes, the old ways are better.
 
I like electric clocks much more. With a majority of them, the second hand has fluid motion and doesn't do the the "tic tic tic" sound every second like battery clocks do.
 
Watching Time Fly

Hans, there is little that gives me more hope and joy than simple stories of couples who love and genuinely desire to please each other.  Its a wonderful clock and I often think it was the digital clock that brought down our quality of life.  With a clock that has hands we get up around 7:00, have lunch around 12:30 and go to bed a little past 10.  With digital clocks comes waking at 7:02, Lunch at 12:26 and bedtime at 10:17.  We now measure coffee that has to brew in 5 minutes or less, pizza in 30 minutes or a second one free and a free Happy Meal if the wait is more than 3 minutes.  All the exact time brings an odd sense of urgency to everything.  I have a beautiful mantle clock that keeps perfect time.  When I need to relax I sit in the living room, watch the gracious sweep of the second hand and think loving thoughts of Ralph who restored and sent it to me.  Enjoy the "hands of time" and tell Don you'll be ready for bed in just a second!

I saw it...

in a mans hands and walked over, the table it was on was filled with tools and stuff. I picked it up and it had the GE name and logo on the bottom, I thought another GE clock turned it over and found on the name on the back RUSSEL WRIGHT,no this isn't another GE clock, I almost ran to pay for it and call Hans and let him know what I had found.
