History:
These clocks were widespread in Czechoslovakia and other eastern block
countries during the 70s/80s communist ērā and were made by Pragotron, a Czechoslovakian manufacturing company known for making timekeeping and visual information systems since 1953. Pragotron clocks are instantly recognisable by their triangular (reverse pyramid) logo consisting of 4 small clocks.

The clocks were used in the corridors of administration buildings, factories, schools, waiting rooms, railway and bus stations.

These analog clocks have a beautiful simple and clean design which is easy to read and are visual masterpieces carrying a truly unique character and design that stands the test of time.

These clocks were originally ‘slave’ clocks which were all connected to a master clock which sent out electronic pulses every minute to control them. This system ensured that every clock in the whole building they were in showed the exact same time.
