Seiko Salvaged Ships Cabin Clock – Original Paint Green (Cream Face)

A beautifully preserved piece of seafaring history — this Seiko ships cabin clock in original green paint with a cream face is one of the most distinctive clocks in our salvage collection.

Originally a slave clock, it was wired to the master clock in the captain’s cabin so that every timepiece on board could be synchronised as the vessel crossed into a new time zone. We have converted it to run on two reliable AA battery-powered silent quartz mechanisms. A small knob on each face unscrews to open the clock and reveal the mechanism.

In 1881, Kintarō Hattori from Tokyo introduced one of the first quartz watches. From then, Seiko became known as a world-class manufacturer of timepieces — both watches and clocks — and was the official supplier of watches to Japanese soldiers during World War II. The heritage behind every Seiko clock is unmatched.

Available in Teal and Green case finishes.

Please note: as genuine salvaged sea clocks, hand colours may vary slightly from those pictured (e.g. the second hand may be black rather than red). This is part of their unique character.
