Revised Travel Clock With Its Key, Officer's Clock
Gilded brass travel clock with bevelled glass, enamelled dial with Roman numerals, phosphorescent hands, without chime, revised, working perfectly and in very good condition despite a small chip in the glass at the bottom left corner of the back door. Height 11 cm, width 8 cm, depth 6.5 cm. Where does the name officer's clock come from? It is said that Napoleon once found himself waiting for his officers who were late on the battlefield. So he had the idea of having a clock created that could be transported anywhere. This is indeed the feat that the clockmakers have managed to achieve, by defying the laws of gravity and reducing the size of the mechanisms.
