Franz Hermle & Sohn Ship's Strike Clock - Nautical Timekeeping Elegance
The Franz Hermle & Sohn Ship’s Strike Clock is a fully mechanical nautical clock built around an eight-day, 11-jewel movement. It combines an authentic ship’s-bell strike sequence with the adjustments needed to live comfortably in a home, office, or maritime collection.
The movement sits inside a hinged brass case with a fast-slow regulator and a bell shutoff. Roman numerals and blued hands keep the dial traditional and readable. A winding key is included, along with white gloves for handling the brass without leaving unnecessary fingerprints.
The clock can be bulkhead mounted or displayed as a substantial instrument. It measures 8 inches in diameter by 4 inches deep and weighs 3 pounds 2 ounces—large enough to show its construction and dial clearly.
