The TWA Flight Center Desk Clock
Vulcain is reissuing the iconic clock from the TWA terminal at JFK Airport, an architectural masterpiece of 1960s modernist design by Eero Saarinen. This new version, a reinterpretation as a compact desk clock, faithfully replicates the original form with a 316L stainless steel body and an iridescent warm light grey finish.
Then as now, a timeless jewel
The TWA Flight Center, a designated historic landmark at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport, stands as a beacon of mid-century modernism. Inaugurated in 1962, this architectural marvel, crafted from reinforced concrete with its fluid, organic curves, was designed by Finnish-American architect Eero Saarinen. The building’s roof, evocative of a bird in flight, perfectly captures the spirit of the Jet Age and a hint of googie design – a time when technological optimism soared alongside advancements in aviation and space exploration. Fully restored in 2019, the TWA Flight Center was reborn as the luxury TWA Hotel, preserving the grandeur and legacy of this iconic terminal.
As you step into this cathedral of air travel, your attention is immediately drawn to the TWA Hotel’s magnificent check-in counter, complete with a retro-styled departures and arrivals board that, despite its nostalgic appearance, provides up-to-date flight information. The staff, outfitted in period-appropriate attire, complete the immersive experience. But as you look up… Vulcain has a surprise for you!
