About the style 3 Baby Ben

 The style 3 was the first of the Big and Baby Bens

designed by Henry Dreyfuss. 

It was manufactured from 1931 until 1934,

making it the shortest run of the Ben styles. 

Model:  1932 Baby Ben, Style 3

Made by:   Westclox

Stock No: VINT1447

Features:  The style three was the first model designed for Westclox by Henry Dreyfuss.  Considered by many to be the classic Ben style, although it had the shortest run.  If not for it's run during the depression and that the peg leg style was still being made, this clock may have been manufactured for many many more years.   The movement has a soft ticking sound and a loud alarm.  There is a Loud/Soft adjustment for the alarm.

Dimensions:   3 1/4" tall, 3" wide at the base

Condition:  This is very nice example of the style 3.  The clock is 100% original.  The movement has been serviced and it runs and alarms as it should. This clock is VERY GOOD overall, showing only minor indications of use.   The original paint is 95% intact.  The original dial is EXCELLENT.  This color scheme of maroon case and copper trim is by far the rarest for this model.  Only one in twenty was manufactured in this color.

Date of manufacture:  November, 1932

Place of Manufacture:  LaSalle, Illinois, USA

Warranty:   Two Years

Price:   $245.00
