Craftsmanship that keeps up with the times

Clocks & instruments

Clocks & instruments: craftsmanship that keeps working. A ship's clock is more than just timekeeping. It's craftsmanship, character, and a nod to a life at sea. The same goes for a barometer that foresees a change in weather before the air even shifts, and for a compass that holds its course when electronics fail.

This is our area of specialization. We stock brands that have performed well for generations – Wempe, Schatz, Barigo, Chelsea Clock, Weems & Plath, Plastimo, Autonautic Instrumental – and we stock them in depth, including instruments that almost no one else even attempts.

Clocks & time. Ship's clocks in brass and chrome, mechanical or quartz, with or without bell strike. Also chronometers, ship's bells, and watersports watches. Weather & meteorology. Barometers, weather stations, barographs, and thermo-hygrometers. From classic brass to modern designs, loose or as a set on a wooden board. Navigation & sailing. Compasses in every mounting style: flush mount, surface mount, bulkhead, deck, and bracket, plus dividers, plotters, clinometers, and binoculars.

Why buy from us. Because we know the differences. Between a mechanical and a quartz movement, between a barometer that needs to be calibrated at sea level and one that doesn't, between a compass that fits in a steel hull and one that doesn't. If in doubt about size, mounting, or design: call or email us, and we'll help you figure it out. We have over 20 years of experience gained in retail and on the ocean.

We remain available after you've purchased a clock or instrument from us. You'll find batteries, hanging rings, keys, and parts at parts & service, even for older models. A good instrument should not be discarded because a part is missing. Looking for something for your wall? Combine with decoration & art for a complete and beautiful maritime atmosphere on board, in your home, or holiday home. And in the Logbook, we explain how the instruments work and what distinguishes the brands.

Frequently Asked Questions

A quartz movement is battery-powered and maintenance-free. A mechanical movement is hand-wound and is a true collector's item. For daily use on board, we recommend quartz – for the salon or as a gift, mechanical is unique.

Our ship's clocks are resistant to humid conditions on board but are not intended for submersion. For outdoor use, we recommend a sheltered location.

Absolutely, that's exactly what many of our customers do. A ship's clock on the wall tells a story and adds character to any room.

Brass occasionally needs a light polishing paste to maintain its shine. Some customers deliberately let brass age for an authentic patina; both are beautiful.

Certainly. Gijs will be happy to assist you personally with your choice. Contact us or read our Captain's Log article on this topic.
