What's good about these later ones is that they used a heavily swirled catalin-like main body and colorful numerals unlike the early versions. The case is all tentite and they tend to warp to some degree. This one had a little twisting to the base, but displays very nicely. It's pure eye-candy for sure.

It could be TV related! Pennwood Numechron made a similar one that looked like a table model TV. The case color wasn't as impressive.
IIRC, Allied Radio used to sell them.
