An original antique C.1900’s Brass British Ship’s Cased Nautical Clock. This probably dates from the turn of the 20th Century and could have been carried on both a military naval ship or a merchantman. With well made brass case and heavy and thick glass face (chip to one side). The clock was made by Smiths (Empire) clockmakers and is maker marked to the face. It appears to run after winding up (a key is supplied) although I have not monitored it for long periods, and the hands are a little loose and probably need tightening. Looks like it was definitely used on board a ship and is an original period piece and not a modern reproduction – has a nice and genuine aged look that would display well. Has a second hand incorporated into the dial. Condition is good overall. The diameter of the clock is 7 inches. A nice display piece for the collector of maritime military and merchant marine collectables.
