Antique American Clocks
Salem Clock Co. "Ship's Bell", 1968.
The Salem Clock Co. of Hartford CT used German movements in their
ship's clocks; I did not open the case to inspect the movement here.
The clock is running but the strike does not shut off,
so it is silenced by the lever at the top.
There is something rattling around inside as well.
The case is 4.25 inches
in diameter and there is an inscription on the rim "Ens. & Mrs. H. Lawrence Serra, Jr." with "2-17-68" at the bottom.
is an 8-day jeweled movement.
I believe that this had a private rather than military use.
