The clock is painted gold and has a silhouette of a man on the side with the numbering of the building (1635) The face is plain white with a neon light around its outer frame.
"Commissioned in 1930 by the Davidson and Licht Jewelry Co. and originally installed at 1318 Broadway, this clock was uprooted twice when the jewelry store moved and has been at its current location since 1947. Interestingly enough, though no longer functional – it was damaged by a car sometime in the 1980's – it still marks the location of a store that sells jewelry, among other things." (
