This clock is running well and has nice motion to the balance wheel and a great sounding beat as it goes back and forth. The movement is very clean looking but we do not have any service records as to when it was last serviced, and advise having this done prior to running on a regular basis. It has been run for about 4-5 day’s straight and kept very good time as it is supposed to do. This clock looks to be all original except the cover to the inside box, which has had the top replaced. It is a known fact that the Navigators would remove the lids of the boxes to make them easier to read and not continually open and close the box top to read the time. This obviously happened to this clock and the lid has been replaced. It is slightly smaller than the original but is a decent fit and part of the clocks origianal history while serving in the military. This is a great looking set that has a lot of historical value to someone whom collects military items and I’m sure the N6657 serial number can be traced to the specific boat it was placed on as many of these records are available from the NAWCC who has access to the hand written serial number database. Our inventory consists mainly of used items from 1 year old to 180 years old and usually have some type of mechanical motor or machine driving it. We do our best to describe them accurately however, we cannot foresee the future and old parts can break at any time without warning, and without visible flaw. We are a small family owned business and have been operating for over 19yrs. We believe in honest business practices similar to the NWACC sworn oath that is required for membership. Even though the NWACC does not enforce it, we pay special attention in trying to uphold and protect the hobby of collecting clocks and watches. We try to disclose anything that has been done to alter a particular timepiece, but more importantly, we do not tear apart timepieces, parting them out s. Trictly to make a profit. Everything we sell as parts either comes to us that way, or it’s too far gone for restoration.
