This is a very rare ship's clock from German clockmaker Urgos. It is made of solid brass and strikes ships time. The clock comes with a key and is working well. The clock is a great addition to any nautical collection.
This clock measures 6 inches in diameter and 3 ½ inches deep. Chimes ships time on the original bell. Very different than a regular clock. The clock strikes once at 12:30, twice at 1:00, three times at 1:30, 4 times at 2:00, 5 times at 2:30, 6 times at 3:00, 7 times at 3:30, and 8 times at 4:00 (all in a double stroke pattern). Then starts all over again striking once at 4:30, etc. The reason for this is the 4 hour ship's watch. A person would be on watch for four hours and then relieved after 4 hours by another person,
It is mounted on a wooden base.
The clock is on working condition and in great cosmetic shape.
Comes with the key.
