A gift with a story you can tell yourself: the principle upon which generations of seafarers relied for their time. At 1446 grams of solid brass and wood, it feels like something to be passed down, on a desk, mantelpiece, or navigation table.

Some clocks tick. This one tells stories. The Weems & Plath Gimbal Box Clock 701100 pays tribute to the classic marine chronometers trusted by generations of sailors. Crafted from solid forged brass, it's something you can see and feel. Inside, a reliable German quartz movement ensures accurate timekeeping. At the heart of this clock is a traditional polished brass gimbal with a locking arm. Thanks to this clever system, the clock always remains perfectly horizontal, even when the surface shifts. The center of gravity remains below the suspension point, ensuring smoothness and stability. Functionality with a historic touch.

The clock rests in a square, solid wood box with a warm mahogany finish and polished brass fittings. A combination that fits effortlessly into a nautical interior, a classic office, or a modern living space with character. As icing on the cake, this clock comes with a battery and a lifetime warranty, and includes a plate for personalization. That is craftsmanship.
