Title: Vintage Hamilton Ships Clock Chronometer w/ Wooden Box
Description: Up for auction is a very cool vintage Hamilton ships chronometer clock with a gyroscope in its original wooden box. The clock winds up, but we were unable to get it to start ticking. We recommend a service after purchase at the buyers expense. The clock is in overall very good condition, with the only major issue being a crack on the top lid of the box. The clock itself is in excellent shape, with no noticeable cosmetic issues on the case, dial, or crystal. The clock appears to have been made in 1941, and was most likely used on a U.S. Navy ship. This clock is from the collection of Jeffrey P. Hess.
