The Chelsea Timemaster is the pinnacle of maritime timekeeping - and
this model features a Radio Room dial. This clock has been used for
many years by the United States Navy in the demanding shipboard
environment - setting the standard long before satellites were used for
navigation - and still in use today.

This Chelsea Timemaster has a silent, high precision quartz movement as
specified by the U.S. Military. It meets standards for vibration,
temperature and humidity extremes. The accuracy of this quartz movement
is +/- 1 minute per year. The Chelsea Timemaster clocks have passed U.
S. Navy tests for accuracy, shock, vibration, temperature and humidity
extremes.

6" diameter
Radio Room dial
Accurate 12 hour quartz movement (+/- 1 min per year)
Second register
Hinged front bezel
Second hand
Black phenolic case

$200 shipped in original special box from Chelsea

Ok, but where is a picture of this "pinnacle of maritime timekeeping"?

If you'd like to save $180 or more, this makes a nice radio room clock.

I have two of them. The second, missing the dial cover but working
perfectly, cost $1 from a junk box under the table at a swap meet. I think
there are many more out there.

Much as I like Chelsea, a quartz movement doesn't add up. A Benjamin
Micheals (sp?) 24 Hr clock looks just as nice. If you want accuracy,
get a MFJ atomic clock. BTW, Chelsea wanted $400 to change the face of
my Maritime Commission clock over to the "radio room" version. I
understand someone else may be able to do the job just as nice. Any leads?

$200 for a quartz clock in a plastic case.

You can get one for $180 on eBay. I still think the old Mastercrafters clock
with world map is cooler. Best of all, it's not a quartz clock in a plastic
case :-)

My radio room clock is a Le Cross Technology clock set to UTC that
synchronizes with WWVB every night. I never have to worry about resetting
it. It also gives me the date, outdoor temerature, and indoor temperature.

Speaking of our hamshack clocks, some years ago I had a Seiko that showed
time in any of the time zones around the world by a bezel that could move.
It was actually a clock nice enough to go on your mantle, as it was in a
brushed "gold-colored" case, with smoked plastic sides, etc. I really liked
that clock, but in a military move to Korea and back, the movers destroyed
it. Sure wish I could find another one, at a reasonable price -- back in
teh early '80's, I think I paid around $100 for it.
