Lot # : 125 - VINTAGE NAUTICAL SHIPS BELL CLOCK & BAROMETER

For more than 120 years, the Ship's Bell Clock has been the bellwether of Chelsea Clock timepieces. Our nautical clock and barometer set pair the clock with a matching Ship's Bell barometer on a traditional mahogany base. The result is an elegant desk weather station that provides accurate timekeeping and short-term weather forecasting with timeless style. Both instruments have a hand-forged solid brass case with a lacquered finish. The Ship's Bell 4.5-inch clock uses a patented 11-jewel mechanical movement with gentle chimes for the seafarer's watch code. For the barometer, we use a double bellows holosteric movement with readings in millibars and inches. It also has a thermometer tube so you can see the current temperature. The hand-silvered dials and black Arabic characters add to the attractive nautical look.
