I worked for Wards twice and have a conflicted relationship with them: I think of them as a 3-legged, one-eyed dog, lovable but flawed. They splapped their name on an awful lot of medicore products, along with some good stuff. I tend to pick things up here and there with the M-W name if I find them interesting.

This is a steeple clock, made in Korea so I'd place it from the 1980s. It's got a right-hand wind striker and left-hand wind time, somewhat stiff. The minute hand has a sloppy fit so it's about 5 minutes fast at the beginning of the hour, or 5 minutes slow later, depending on how you want to set it. I've tried to tighten the hand a couple times but haven't managed to do it well enough.

It's also missing the finials, and I haven't found anything I like yet to put in the posts yet.

This has a 31-day movement, which makes it very similar to my D&A wall clock, which is also Korean. It's very possible they have the same movement.

Acquired: thrift shop, sometime in the 2010s.

Current condition: case needs finials; runs fine.
