Chelsea (Boston) Nautical Ships Wheel, Ships Bell Mechanical Clock & Barometer is German Hermle works on double magnolia wood base was made in 1978 They quit making the ships strike clock in 2020. The Ships strike clock and barometer work perfect.   You would need to adjust the Barometer to your area to get the proper reading. I have printed out a instructions off Chelsea site to explain how to adjust.  The brass on the bezel glass face and spinning wheel handles has been polish to give it a two tone effect.  If you like totally polish I leave that up to you.  When I first got the clock I told my son that it not striking right until learned that ship clocks are set for their 4 hr shifts.  That is cool and did not know until I read up on it.  The last picture shows a engraved plate of the gentleman that received this awesome gift as a retirement gift.  These clocks are so cool.  Selling because I can't kept everything so I am down sizing my vintage and antique collection that I have collected over the years.  A new one that battery operated cost 4,125.00 and they no longer make the Ship Bell strike series clock.
