Description

This nautical-themed desk clock is constructed from brass and features a gimbal mount design. The circular clock head is suspended between two turned pillars, allowing it to swivel, and is supported by a stepped circular base with concentric ring detailing. The white dial displays black Roman numeral indices, a black anchor motif at the 12 o’clock position, and a silhouette of a sailing ship above the 6 o’clock position. It features black spade-style hour and minute hands. The mechanical hand-wound movement is visible through a glazed rear case back; the movement plate is incised with the maker Seiko and denotes 7 Jewels. The clock is fitted with a top-mounted winding crown and suspension ring.

Height: 12.5 cm.


Condition report:
