Maria Blue Factory Clock Roman Numerals
The Maria Blue Factory Clock with Roman Numerals is a faithful recreation of clocks that would have hung on the walls in factories across Britain in the early 20th century. These classic Synchronome clocks would have been a common sight as workers looked up waiting for break time or knocking off time. This handmade metal timepiece, with brushed aluminium bezel, makes a splendid blue wall clock that would fit just as beautifully in a kitchen as it
would in a living room and also in an office space.
Synchronome were one of the classic British clock manufacturers. Founded in 1895, they unfortunately ceased trading many years ago. They supplied the BBC, The London Underground, Cunard, Liberty's and The Times. But in 2021 Mark Hope-Jones the founder's great-great-great-nephew resurrected the classic British brand. These meticulously crafted recreations have the same all-metal construction and vintage industrial feel, but feature a stand-alone quartz movement.
Each Maria Blue Factory Clock with Roman Numerals is individually built to order by hand and as such is delivered from the brand themselves. Each blue metal wall clock has its own distinguishing features, arising out of the artisanal nature of the components. A real piece of modern heritage.

Bought the 18" Synchronome Clock and a candle! Amazing craftsmanship on the clock, looks stunning. Not lit the candle yet but smells lovely (Charles Farris make the best). Prompt delivery, all really nicely done, especially the card on the packing materials etc. Thank you!

Meet the Maker: Synchronome Clocks
Established in 1895 by Frank Hope-Jones, Synchronome pioneered electric clock systems that became cornerstones of British industry and public life. From their bases in London's Clerkenwell, then Alperton and Wiltshire, Synchronome supplied precision timekeeping to the BBC, Selfridges, Harrods, Liberty, the London Underground, The Times, and ocean liners including Cunard's fleet. Frank Hope-Jones personally announced the first British Summer Time on BBC radio in 1923 and suggested the famous six 'pips' time signal. Today, relaunched by Mark Hope-Jones on the English-Welsh border at Hay-on-Wye, Synchronome creates handmade British wall clocks to order, recreating century-old all-metal traditional designs with modern quartz movements. Each clock features hand-spun steel cases, manually printed dials, hand-stamped serial numbers, and counterweighted hands, celebrating British precision engineering and industrial heritage in stunning contemporary colourways.
