Guess the value of this week's item: This modern mantel clock made in the form of a pocket watch on an easel stand is some 44cm (17in) high and caught my eye at a recent auction. Did it make a large or minute price?
A - £50
B - £150(We're not 100% sure, but it seems likely - see post below.)
C - £250
[STRIKE]It appears to be the same as this one, but that sold for £110. Any ideas?[/STRIKE]

Thanks for posting!
I've had a really good look and I can't find anything else that looks anything at all like that clock, I wonder if they've made a mistake with the answers and they meant to put £110 as one of the options? :huh:
Either that or it's hidden away with a really obscure description, but I've tried searching for 'clock', 'watch', 'timepiece', 'pocket', 'easel', 'tripod', '44cm', 'stand' and 'mantel'.
The only clocks I could find with any of those 3 sold prices were this one (it's a pocket watch type clock, but looks like a wall clock and there's no mention of a stand), this one (it's a mantel clock, but the rest of the description is nothing like) and this one (it's a carriage clock so nothing like the description)

Thanks for looking.The first one you linked to seems to be the same and as it sold for £150 I'm going to go for that one.
