7 up and sun crest clock

[CocaColaman1]

At a local auction I go to it has these two clocks coming up for sale. I'm really interested in the 7up one but I don't know how much I should go on it before it is out of value range? Please help, and on the sun crest one I feel like its a reproduction but I'm not for sure.

The Sun Crest dial face looks original, should be marked Telechron or PAM. However it looks to be missing the glass dome but those are easily replaced. If the motor is not an original style or not working you can also find them or repair by replacing the coil which is usually the problem. Most of the value is in the dial face.

Don't know about the values , but the Sun Crest looks like the real deal to me . It is amazing what they are doing today n the world of fakes though .

I would say around a $40-$60 on the 7up &$100-$120 on the Suncrest Clock if they are in good condition & work.

Is the rim dented at 10 o clock? It looks it to me. That may reduce it some if it is.

I cant tell if the rim is dented or if that's just a glare

Well, after auction. Didn't get either of them The suncrest one the chrome rim was beat to crap. I think it was a reproduction. The second hand on it didn't work, there for the hour and minute hand didn't move. It went for 85. 7up one was in good condition, second hand moved but the hour and minute didn't. It went for 75

For a future reference I thought I'd share this picture of a Sun Crest clock and bottle. Both are from the 1950s. I no longer have the clock because it was part of a trade I made for a couple of soda bottles I wanted. I originally paid $10.00 for the clock and it was in perfect working condition. ( I would have posted this earlier but just now discovered I still had the picture).
