Founded in the 1850s, Schatz was for years the leading manufacturer of classic ship’s instruments. They continued to make mechanical chiming movements, before finally closed in 1985.
This set comprises superb examples of the top-of-the-range Royal Mariner clock and matching barometer, both showing superb workmanship and mounted on a hardwood board, 42cm x 21cm. The clock has two eight-day mechanical movements, one for the clock, one for chimes. It strikes the ship's bell 4-hour watch sequence marked by progressive cycles of one-to-eight bells struck at 30-minute intervals. The clock hammer will be stabilized for transport (re-set by rotating the screw on the rear from the vertical off-position); it can be switched off using the lever at III. The dial is in excellent condition with minor patina around the keyholes. The lacquered brass housings are fine with minimal patina (see photos), without cracks, dents or major blemishes. The doors are secured by catches on the side. The facet-cut glass ports are clean and intact.
Clock and barometer are both functioning. The clock strikes as it should. Time can be regulated using the lever above the numeral XII. Complete with key and a copy of the original instruction leaflet. Barometer adjustment through rear-hole
A rare opportunity to own a set of these superb instruments, for use at home, in the office or on-board ship.
