About the style 2 Big Ben

 The style 2 uses the same movement as the style 1a Big Ben.

It was manufactured from 1927 until 1932. 

Starting in 1928, Westclox offered the style 2 in painted "crackle" finishes of Rose, Green and Blue.  The crackle finish was discontinued in 1930, in favor of solid colors, as shown in this listing.
