SBB railway clocks - mobatime/Mondaine

[blade007]

hey. i didnt realise the clocks on railway station in Switzerland have a smooth seconds hand. almost 36,000BPM kinda smooth. they certaily have a very distinct and unique look about them. I really love the 1.5 second pause, it really plays a trick on you the first time..

here is some more info on them

Mondaine is known for their use of the famous SBB railway clock face. You can buy a replica of the SBB clock as a watch or a wall clock in most major railway stations, among other locations. However, you should note that most of them do not replicate the hallmark smooth movement of the second hand for 58.5 seconds followed by the 1.5 second pause that is characteristic of real SBB railway clocks, but they do replicate the clock face. They are quartz, and the price may seem a little inflated to you (130-180CHF). The vast majority of SBB railway clocks are actually produced by Mobatime (Moser-Baer AG), not Mondaine, even though Mondaine's name appears on some of the larger clocks such as the Treffpunkt in Zurich HB. Mondaine's wall and desk clocks, however, are only of "Swiss design" and are manufactured in China and Taiwan.

what type of clock does the railway system in your country/town have?

This is what the train station in my village looks like:

The clock is non-branded and has no seconds hand.

This is probably the least active railyard you are ever going to see short of an abandoned one.

Corgi that is because your village has 4 people and 6 sheep...

GOOD ODDS mate!
