Question

case
I purchased a very nice little Bulova clock.    It is called the STREETS OF TIME.  "MAIN STREET".  It resembles a lightpost.  A metal case.  To separate faces, back to back.  Each clock face operates separately, each one can be removed from it's frame.  However, once removed, it is a sealed case.  There is a small, very small, almost invisible, curly wire which extends less than 1/4"  on one side.   I do not have any idea on how to see if there is a battery inside, or if the battery is operational.  I don't know how to set the clock.

Answer
looks like the setting knob is visible in the front endge of the photo - knerled wheel visible in the little slot in the side.

not sure about the batttery - might be the little pie shaped half moon door on the left edge of the back pops open with a fingernail or such --or the entire back prys off????
