Original WWII U.S. Navy Mark I. Deck Clock by Chelsea Clock Co. with Winding Key - dated 1944

Item Description

Original Item: Only One Available. This is genuine U.S. Navy Mark I Deck Clock, made by the Chelsea Clock Co. of Boston, Mass. It is mounted in a dust proof and moisture proof black phenolic case with a 5 1/4" dial. It features hour and minute hands on the main dial, with a smaller dial for the seconds.

The case for the clock opens up to show the back, which has the original key inside as well, which winds the clock and sets the time. There is an adjustment for the speed of the clock, as well as a "STOP" hacking function to freeze the seconds for clock synchronization. We have wound the clock, and it seems to keep relatively good time.

The face reads as follows:

MARK I. DECK CLOCK
U.S. NAVY
(N)  66767  1944

This excellent example is still mounted to the back mounting plate, with an intact rubber pad between the to parts. Both the back of the clock and the back of the mounting plate have scratched in number 485019, but we do not know what the significance is.

Clock face measures approximately 5 1/4 inches in diameter, with the outer housing measuring about 6 3/4 inches in diameter at the front, and 8 1/2 inches at the back. It measures about 4 1/2 inches deep.

The US Navy used these throughout WWII to help indicate the time while on deck, and afterwards. Would make a perfect clock for your desk at work or at home!

There is no warranty for this clock and returns for a non-working watch will not be honored. Please note all clocks are wound and tested then recorded on video before shipment. We are not in the repair business- ALL SALES ARE FINAL.
