	title of this thread your message Check out the ebay auction below. I have a vintage Howard Miller version of this clock. I have never seen the vitra reproduction, but from the vitra photos the only thing that looks different is that it's made of cherry instead of walnut. I saw this auction on ebay - and I have to say, if this is the current version, I'm really disappointed. It looks nothing like the original - The face is flatter with the bevel on the inside being majorly enlarged, it looks like the glass is flat, and the base is not circular (which i knew, but this looks severely skewed) Is this a good representation of the vitra version, and if so, whats the deal with the proportions? This is the only repro that I've notice that seems dramatically changed. Anyone? I attempted to post this in the associated web link but it kept giving me errors so here is the link... http://cgi.ebay.com/VITRA-George-Nelson-Chronopak-Desk-Clock-Eames-Knoll_W0QQitemZ160344965307QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item25554e00bb&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12\|66%3A2\|39%3A1\|72%3A1205\|240%3A1318\|301%3A0\|293%3A1\|294%3A50#ebayphotohosting associated web images (optional) associated web link (optional) your email your password create a forums account \| you forgot your password?
