Vintage German Automatic Calendar Desk Clock Mannheim 1960 Franz Gurris FSC For Sale

A rare vintage German mechanical desk/travel clock with automatic day and date calendar, believed to have been manufactured by Uhrenfabrik Mühlheim (Müller & Co.), Germany. The clock has a classic Mid-Century Modern brass-tone case and a brushed silver dial with applied hour markers and a German day/date display.

The calendar shows the day in German, with the date in a separate window below. The clock retains its original commemorative presentation plaque, making it a particularly interesting historical piece connected to Mannheim.

The plaque bears the commemorative period 1950–1960, the date Mannheim, 15.2.1960, the name Franz Gurris, and the initials FSC.

According to the information provided, Franz Gurris was the founder of Gurris GmbH (formerly Gurris Industrievertretungen GmbH) in Mannheim. The initials FSC correspond to FSC Mannheim e.V. (Fallschirmsportclub Mannheim), the parachuting club of Mannheim.

This makes the clock a fascinating commemorative presentation piece with a strong post-war Mannheim connection.
