This is not a Telechron, but 53 minutes into the B-picture crime movie "Police Rookie,"  also called "I Take This Oath" (1940), there is a big Postal Telegraph clock on the wall.  Amazingly, it is not running!

"Legal Eagles", with Redford, Wigner, Hannah.. has Redford shaking an alarm clock, then fades to a full screen view of a 700 Electrolarm dial...  I guess they used this cool dial instead of the cheapo alarm he was shaking.. no full pic of the Electrolarm from what I saw  @^?

I love my Brite-Dial, it's my current bedside alarm.

I think they used a barometric sensor to fire them off.. .but kinda wondering if a Telechron rotor based timer might have been a backup...

Was watching "Being John Malkovich" last night, strange movie any way you look at it, and in one scene there was a close up of a 3H176 Geneva on his mantelpiece.

I only have an antenna for TV...never had cable.  The local TV station added METV.  Tonight...the Batman episode is featuring the diabolocal villian Clock King.  In his evil lair, he has numerous clocks, one is a Pharoah.
