“Flash” is a sub-brand of the French “Vedette” clock corporation. This model sold by both brand names and in several color combinations. It originates from the 1970s and It is fairly large clock, about 25 cm wide. It can be mounted on the wall or stand on a table/desk/shelf using a small flip out support at the bottom. Behind the back cover you will find the compartment for the C type battery, a thumb wheel to adjust the time and a lever to “kickstart” the motor after replacing the battery. Here also a seconds wheel is visible so you can see whether the clock is actually running (other than that it does not have much use as it is normally enclosed in the cabinet). The clock is driven by a Japanese Jeco tuning fork movement, the same that is also used in some Copal clocks. When I just got this one it was stopping frequently. A tiny bit of oil at all the smaller fast moving axles did the trick: it has not stopped since then and keeps perfect time. The mechanism is very well built, mostly metal and very little plastic. Interestingly the hours wheel has only 24 tiles and is thus smaller than the minutes wheel with 60 tiles Very good vintage condition, works and on-time.
