About Antique Ships Clocks

Clocks have been a crucial aid to navigation ever since sailors started using sextants to determine longitude. Starting in the 18th century, marine chronometers became increasingly accurate, and eventually evolved into what are known as ships bell clocks, which strike bells at certain intervals for the changing of the watch. Many such clocks were made in the 20th century by the Chelsea Clock Company.
