Looks real to me, right makers mark on the face, right back and he has sold many clocks in the last month for 300-400 and 500 bucks a piece Everyone left him great feedback. Check his feedback.

They are making fake clock decals with the PAM name.. Just because he has good feedback does not make the clock real.

Looks wrong to me. I was going to post that same clock on here for info/feedback as well, but figured out myself there were just too many things that looked wrong. Shouldn't this have a makers mark/sticker on the back of the case? Shouldn't the case be painted in a black, textured finish? The lettering for "PAM CLOCK" on the glass just doesn't look right either. I'd pass before spending that mush $$$ on a possible suspect repop....

the makers mark does look too sharp, compared to the ones I have sold.

Isn't he responsible for most of the repro face in circulation ?

I may stand corrected.Looking closer the Texlite logo on one and McMath Axilrod on the other.With these being produced later than some of the older versions with somewhat different font.

Yes he makes all the faces I believe and all those from that seller except the Double Bubble ones. Nice looking repo clocks though..

KZ I almost got burned on a clock that had a sticker put over an old clock face that looked too good to be true and after I took a magnfier and looked I realized it was.BE careful
