Ansonia Black Marble Clock "Click" to Login or Register

Hi Everyone
I have recently acquired and restored an Ansonia Clock but I have been unable to discover what the name of this model is. Attached is a photo and I would be most grateful if someone out there knows anything about this particular model.
Regards
Nick

It's not your average Ansonia. Very nice!
They had a series called Marbelite follow by a #.
But I can't really identify this one.

Hi Dave
Thanks
This is an odd one as most of the similar style of Ansonia cases appear to be made of wood, marbleite (rubber) or cast iron but this is certainly black marble and rather heavy. It is the first US clock in my collection (the rest are all french) and is not of the same standard or quality but is easier to work on and proving to be a good and reliable time keeper.
Regards
Nick

Hope you can find out what it is. Here's a case that's similar but it's French.
