I have had this for a very long time. States Tele-Timer on face of clock and that is it. No maker!

Two knobs in back. One to set time and the other to spin to start.

Button on top, which I am guessing you press to start the timer. Last pic has has flash so you can see the lights, green on every hour except yellow on 11 and red on 12.

Metal clock on a wood base. Original cloth cord. Clock is keeping silent time.

Any info is greatly appreciated....Doug

Doug,
Here is a site describing the Needham Telo-Timer - Yours appears to be missing the paper label with the manufacturer's info - Very cool item, I doubt many were made.

Bruce....thanks for the great info. I can see now with a close up look it is Telo-Timer. I get no light indication so it must be shot. Shame as it keeps perfect, quiet time. Cool design....many thanks....Doug

I would certainly look into repairing it as the lights is what makes it what it is.
I might just be as simple as a good cleaning or repairing a broken wire.
