Shipstrike nautical clocks use the finest German movements
designed for mass production. They strike the traditional
ship's bells: One bell for each half hour on a four hour
watch at sea. After eight bells, at four, eight, and twelve
o'clock, the sequence repeats itself beginning with one
bell. A uniquely satisfying way to mark the passage of
time.
Forged brass, 4.5" Dial, 6.5" High. The bezels are hinged.
Shown on Contemporary mahogany mantel base.
Available with matching barometers.
A heavy, forged, solid brass bezel holds the dial glass, and is either threaded to screw onto the front of the case, or hinged to swing open allowing easy access to the dial to wind the clock and set the time. The hinge bezel is more convenient.
