The flask has a clock face that reads "Time to Take a Drink" The back of the flask has the letters "U.S." cast in the glass. The dial under the glass is very nice however the glass covering the dial has a spider crack (no pieces are missing). An unusual combination of horological interest and human need. Height 5 inches
