This Marine Mechanical Radio Room 12E Clock was sold to the United States Coast Guard Store, on April 21, 1942.

The 12E movement (time-only mechanism) has been completely overhauled, the case has been washed, the dial has been re-silvered and this piece has the original black 12/24-hour dial. Serial # 329782.
The sinking of the Titanic resulted in the Radio Act of 1912, requiring 24-hour radio watches at sea. The disaster also led to this clock design, which features two 3-minute periods marked in red, indicating Morse Code silence periods when only distress, urgent, and safety signals could be transmitted. All ships and coastal stations kept a mandatory listening watch for such signals.
