About this Clock

Westclox introduced the style 9 Big Ben in 1980.  The style 9 was being made in Athens, Georgia.  Due to international competition, Westclox experimented with manufacturing abroad, to be competitive.   During this time, Westclox commissioned a firm in Brazil to manufacture a version of the Big Ben that was similar to the original style 7, but was altogether a new design.  The movement was similar to the series 66 used by Westclox in many models, but never the Big Ben.  The clock is substantially built, with all metal case and movement.  These clocks were not ever commissioned by Westclox.  They were manufactured and sold under the brand name Pomclok, div of MBR Industries.
