Bestselling 6" Ship's Bell Clock, Traditional Base Collection [Pmgf9u5H]

For more than 120 years, the Ship's Bell Clock has been guiding sailors and many others as it marks the passage of time. By adding a traditional mahogany base, our traditional wall clock becomes an elegant desk clock that is equally magnificent on a living room mantel as it is in a deckhouse. This six-inch ship's clock uses the same patented design as the first Ship's Bell produced in 1900 - and like that clock, it's still handcrafted in the U.S. by master clockmakers.

Every Ship's Bell 6-inch luxury desk clock has a forged brass case that resists saltwater corrosion and tarnish. Using an eleven-jewel German mechanical movement and 290 precision brass internal parts, this clock keeps precision time with easy winding using the included key. It uses rich yet gentle chimes abiding by the mariner watch code. You'll hear eight chimes at four, eight and twelve o'clock to signal the end of the watch. For each following half-hour, the clock counts upward with one chime, two chimes, etc. until the next four-hour mark. Behind the hinged bezel is a hand-silvered dial and gracefully curving black Arabic numerals to track time visually.

With the deep mahogany base complementing the lacquered brass finish, this ship's clock with bells is a statement piece for any collection. We can engrave the case with a special message or add an engraving plate to the base. These personalization services make the Ship's Bell Desk Clock an enduring gift for birthdays, retirements, executive promotions and other celebrations - especially arriving in a blue presentation box that enhances the elegance.
