View translationShip's clock - Schatz - Vintage - Lacquered brass - Pre-1992 - Schatz Royal Mariner
No. 92031319
Founded in the 1850s, Schatz was the leading manufacturer of classic ship’s clocks, continuing to make mechanical chiming movements until 1985, production later being taken over by Altitude clocks and Delite in Denmark.
This fine example of the top-of-the-range Royal Mariner ship's clock was produced in West Germany before reunification (pre-1992). It is in strikingly good condition. The clock shows fine workmanship with two eight-day mechanical movements, one each for clock and chimes. It strikes the ship's bell 4-hour-watch sequence marked by progressive cycles of one-to-eight bells struck at 30-minute intervals. Chimes will be switched off and the clock stabilised for transport. On receipt, the mechanism can be released by turning the screw on the back anti-clockwise (see photo #26-27).
The white face is in good condition with only light patina. The lacquered brass housing is also in excellent condition with light patina (see photos). There are no major dents or cracks. The door is secured by brass scuttle-clamps. The facet-cut glass-port is clean and intact.
The clock runs and strikes correctly. The time can be regulated using the screw at XII. The clock has run for 8 days before being put up for sale. Complete with key and copy of Schatz instruction leaflet. The clock can be mounted on a wall using the four holes in the rim.
This is a rare opportunity to own one of these superb top-line instrument, that are no longer in production. This example is in great condition - for use at home, in the office or on-board ship.
I pack with great care (see reviews) and send securely with insurance.

Un peu déçue de mon achat car je n'avais pas réalisé qu'il était si petit. 1m40 ce n'est pas beaucoup!

Hi Anne. I am glad that you received the lamp without a problem, but I am sorry you were slightly disappointed by the height. However, the lamp's measurements were all clearly stated in the description. But anyway, I hope any disappointment will pass with time. Best wishes and seasons greetings. Steve

Hi. Why you have posted a poor review? - You have not contacted me to tell me of the problem and discuss possible remedies. - You write that the clock does not work. But the clock was sold in an the auction “Clocks & Accessories for Restoration”- you cannot expect it to work without repair - The listing had a summary clearly stating that the clock does not work (“…..needs repair - runs slowly”) - The listing clearly states that the clock “runs slowly, so will need servicing” - The description concludes that this was a clock “which after service should have a long life” - In summary, I clearly write that the clock was for repair and restoration. It is unfair to criticize me if you cannot get the clock to work - If you had contacted me, we could have discussed ways to set up the clock (as outlined in the listing). Please delete your unfair review. Best wishes Steve
